Question

I went through this tutorial for basic Passbook dev:
http://www.raywenderlich.com/20734/beginning-passbook-part-1

I will be using a Windows machine for development and I see two Apple specific tools used:

1. OpenSSL commands – this one I believe there is a Windows version for, so it’s doable.
2. Keychain – for storing, importing, and exporting certificates. Is there a Windows alternative?

Answer 1

I managed to Passbook working with the help of this gentleman’s code:

He also has a very useful translation of how to get the certificates running along nicely:
