• 実は、MacとWinの同時対応をさせるために、「Visual studio for Mac」で開発をしていたんです。 初の試みでした（笑） 少し開発画面を見てみましょう。.
• Developer Community for Visual Studio Product family. Hi all, I have a Objective C Code that include the Swift standard libraries and I am looking to integrate it with my App(developed in Visual Studio for Mac).

In November 2016, we introduced Visual Studio for Mac, the newest member of the Visual Studio family. Visual Studio for Mac is a developer environment optimized for building mobile and cloud apps with Xamarin.

Is there any possibility to write swift code and preview in Visual Studio Code (windows coding app)? I see in the guide for swift coding that requires ios system but i have just windows for the moment.

Can I code swift in Windows?

Yes, you can code Swift on Windows. Check out RemObjects Silver which gives you a Swift compiler in Visual Studio 2015. Visual Studio Express is free, but I don't know if it works with Silver.

Swift itself is just a language. In order to build an iOS app, you need libraries like Foundation and UITouch (which can be written in any language, in this case: C, Objective-C and C++). Apple has open sourced many Foundation classes and ported them to Linux but there are lot of stuffs that are not fully implemented or there are bugs in Linux that don't exists in OS X. There's no official Windows port. I doubt Apple will ever open source UITouch at all.

Silver can target .NET (and I guess by extension its cross-platform cousin Mono), Java or Sugar (vendor's proprietary framework). If you want to use Swift on Windows, yes, you can, but don't expect to build an iOS app on Windows. If you are serious about iOS development, buy a Mac, even the $500 Mac Mini can go a long way. If you only want to play with Xcode, assemble a Hackintosh or a virtual machine so that you can run OS X.
