# Fully Native Cross-Platform Swift Apps

**[Skip](https://daily.dev/sources/skip-tools)** · 6 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

Skip 1.5 introduces the ability to build fully native cross-platform apps using Swift and SwiftUI for both iOS and Android. The framework bridges SwiftUI onto Jetpack Compose on Android, allowing developers to write pure Swift throughout their entire app while still accessing native Android APIs. Key features include: a `#if SKIP` block that transpiles Swift to Kotlin for direct Android/Java API access, support for 2,240+ Swift packages on Android, and the `SkipFuse`/`SkipFuseUI` modules that bridge model and UI layers. A sample app (Skip Showcase) has been published to both app stores as a demonstration. Native support is currently a technology preview, with ongoing work on documentation, build times, and binary size reduction.
