I've been looking into this. (JIRA CB-5706) The current create and update scripts for iOS are shell and Python script. Both of which aren't available on Windows without jumping through a lot of hoops.
Converting the scripts to JavaScript, modeled after the Android scripts, will fix the issues of not being able to run them on Windows as we already have a Node dependency. But the bigger problem is check_reqs. That will never succeed on Windows as there's no XCode there. Maybe add an optional --force parameter that will allow people to ignore the check_reqs result? Before creating a JIRA issue for that I wanted to solicit some opinions here. Is this a valid course of action? Are there better alternatives? Bas
