Xcode is probably the best development platform available for Apple device users, but if you’re using a non-Apple device such as a Windows or Linux-based PC, then you’ll quickly discover that Apple hasn’t released a cross-platform port of Xcode or any means of developing on any system besides that of macOS.
It was only yesterday that we reported about the palera1n team’s latest update to the checkm8 bootrom exploit-based jailbreak tool for up to A11 devices, which officially added support for iPadOS 18 for the first time.

When Apple unveiled iPadOS 15 earlier this year at the annual Worldwide Developers Conference, there were a variety of new features announced. That included a pretty big update for support for Apple's Swift Playgrounds app. Being able to build apps right from the company's tablet lineup was good news at the time.
Swift is one of the most popular development languages out there, thanks in part to the fact that iOS is one of the most popular platforms out there in the wild. In an effort to make sure that developers, and those interested in becoming developers or simply just learning a new trade, some educators are turning to development courses in Apple's dev language.
iPadOS 15 is on the way. Apple showcased the new software at this year's WWDC. This year was all about cross-platform feature parity, but that's usually the case with iPadOS and iOS anyway. That's certainly the case this year.
Apple today expanded its existing coding resources for teachers and educators with a newly launched Develop in Swift online course and Everyone Can Code curricula.
In a brand-new update for the Sileo package manager Sunday evening, the Sileo Team incorporated support for built-in editorials so that avid jailbreakers who are interested in reading about jailbreak-centric news can now do so in addition to installing their favorite packages.

Apple wants to help you "learn coding the fun way", and to do that it has Swift Playgrounds.
