One thing LLMs are really good at is translation. I haven’t tried porting projects from one language to another, but it wouldn’t surprise me if they were particularly good at that too.

as someone who has done that in a professional setting, it really does work well, at least for straightforward things like data classes/initializers and average biz logic with if else statements etc... things like code annotations and other more opaque stuff like that can get more unreliable though because there are less 1-1 representations... it would be interesting to train an llm for each encountered new pattern and slowly build up a reliable conversion workflow
