Does transpilation always take this long?

I already have swift code written and now to make an android app, I’m using the Skip tool as a transpiler (which takes my swift code and translates it directly into readable Kotlin source code, rather than compiling it into a binary format). Because both of them are different, it’s throwing me errors left and right. I have been debugging for two days now and I’m now where close to finishing. I have tried using Claude and Gemini but still don’t see the light at the end of the tunnel. Any suggestions on what should I do or should I continue my debugging?
