Judging from GitHub, it looks kinda dead [1]. GNUstep for Windows [2] might be a better choice (and more likely to be up to date and complete since it is still in active development) to port something from macOS. Although you may need to have some GNUstep libraries on the system to run the application (or install them alongside your application). In traditional GNUstep fashion, it is unclear from their site what exactly is needed and why and gives the impression that you need to install the entire GNUstep just to run a simple application.

Last time I tried, it did, but it was a lot of work to get running with the version of Xcode at that time. The mailing list had a lot of details on what needs to be done to get the toolchain up and running. It was a tough slog but I did get it working.
It's worth noting that Microsoft used a lot of Cocotron for their WinObjC porting project. Depending on your needs it might be worth a look. I was porting a desktop Mac app, so it was less useful.
