Now that Swift is open-source and cross-platform, several teams are racing to make Swift a viable language for web development. The major frameworks: Perfect, Vapor, IBM Kitura, and Zewo have over 15,000 stars on GitHub, and are growing quickly! Join us as we talk about the different frameworks, their pros and cons, and an introduction for how to get started with developing in server side Swift. Join Edward for a live coding demo and even deploy a Swift application to the cloud!
