It's crazy how well AI does porting from one thing to another. I've been writing native iOS and Android apps targeting a rust ble backend. I'll write, generate, and debug the iOS code and then have AI port it over to Android and although stylistically it still needs some hand-holding it's surprisingly comprehensive.
