Partial A fork of a UI compatibility kit can be extended with AI help, but the work requires deep knowledge of Objective-C/Swift, UIKit internals, and old iOS SDK behavior. Testing it on legacy devices or simulators is also hard to do well.
What it would actually take: The codebase is Objective-C or Swift code that re-implements or backports newer UIKit and Foundation APIs for older iOS versions. Building a real version means understanding the Apple runtime and private APIs of each target version, plus a matrix of simulators or old devices for regression testing. The hard part is correctness across OS versions, which needs iOS platform expertise rather than prompting alone.
