What Apple open sourced was Swift the language, not Swift "the amazing
thing you can make apps in now". Cocoa isn't included in the open source
version, neither is most features you need to make it do applications.

While there will likely be some effort by someone to make some sort of
bridge, Apple will certainly never release it or support it.
