So, how exactly are iOS and Android supported? I see the support for Java, but I fail to see Objective-C or Swift support

You can also compile for these platforms using c++ or hl/c, no need for Objective C or Swift here.

Just a bit more info :) 1) hxcpp can generate .mm files, instead of .cpp 2) hxcpp has some ready to use externs and helpers for Objective-C, see: https://api.haxe.org/v/development/cpp/objc/index.html 3) It supports writing own externs for Objective-C specific types like protocols.

So interaction with Mac/iOS libraries may be pretty smooth on this target.
