For jumping abord, there are not very many frameworks for UI development. There is https://github.com/compnerd/swift-win32 which is less WinForms and more Common Control based. There were a couple of different attempts for WinRT to get XAML based UI systems. There was no official support for UWP, and that would likely require some tweaks to the runtime.
For another SwiftUI-like wrapper, see also https://github.com/stackotter/swift-cross-ui (used by Adawaita to generate widgets, and mentioned in other comments).
The key premise of this approach is to provide a SwiftUI-like declarative wrapper around Gnome functionality. It's unclear what it adds over swift-cross-ui.
SwiftUI itself has growing pains mainly around being on the right thread for processing/updates and getting data binding right.
Blog entries on swift.org or from Apple tend to be little demos that show the happy path, but when discussing new frameworks (like a Gnome wrapper) or platforms (like the recent embedded), I'd like more demonstration that the authors understand and address key issues and will sustain development. Cross-platform UI frameworks get complicated quickly and have a long tail of issues (cf Flutter, Java/Eclipse, et al) that can be blockers for clients/users. For Swift it doesn't help to have multiple concurrency models and obviously different behaviors on apple platforms and Linux (where UI is not officially tested).
