9. Syntax: simple - clean - nice let swift = "!"
10. Learning & Teaching & Coding • simple - clean - nice Syntax • Swift Playgrounds • Xcode Playground
11. Learning & Teaching & Coding • simple - clean - nice Syntax • Swift Playgrounds • Xcode Playground Great as first programming language!
12. Tools ! • Swift compiler + stdlib • foundation, libdispatch • xctest • Swift Package Manager, llbuild • CI, !, Benchmark • More: playgrounds, protobuf
13. Community - People ! " #
14. Platforms Mobile | Desktop Server | Web Embedded
15. Platforms • iOS and macOS -  • Linux -  • Web - IBM +  + Server APIs • Android - Community + "Brian Gesiak" Other • Raspberrypi, Windows, FreeBSD, PS4,
16. static const StringRef OSs[] = { static const StringRef Arches[] = { "OSX", "arm", "tvOS", "arm64", "watchOS", "i386", "iOS", "x86_64", "Linux", "powerpc64", "FreeBSD", "powerpc64le", "Windows", "s390x" "Android", }; "PS4", }; static const StringRef Endianness[] = { "little", "big" };
17. Web ! • Swift@IBM: • Frameworks: Kitura, Vapor, Perfect, Zewo • Hosting: Heroku, AWS, Digital Ocean, Azure • Performance: > nodeJS, java, ruby
18. Web ! • Swift@IBM: • Frameworks: Kitura, Vapor, Perfect, Zewo • Hosting: Heroku, AWS, Digital Ocean, Azure • Performance: > nodeJS, java, ruby Server APIs Project
20. Android • apple/swift -  • stdlib + Foundation • swift-corelibs-libdispatch open PR "#162" • !"# SwiftAndroid
21. Android Requirements: NDK, libiconv-libicu, .... • swift repo: 100% swift • SwiftAndroid: android app + swift lib "How we put an app in the Android Play Store using Swift"
22. Android limitations • Hard to setup • No java interoperability • Community driven Not production ready, Yet
23. Evolution Swift is Young and Moves fast
24. It is not the strongest that survive, but the one who are willing to adapt — Evolution
25. Hottest News!! !
26. Swift 2.3 is Deprecated Xcode 8.2 release notes
27. Evolution apple/swift-evolution -> apple.github.io/swift-evolution • 3 major release in 2 years • 144 Accepted proposals. 1,591 commits • hundred thousand of emails in mailing list
28. Swift 3.0 • 90+ proposals • Syntax, Syntax, (if let - where, open, fileprivate, ...) • Swifty Foundation, GCD and API • Removed automatic objc-swift bridging • C and UnsafePointer • Swift Package Manager release !
29. But where is ABI ? Not there yet. We were busy breaking the language !
30. Swift 4.0 ! • ! No Source breaking changes (unless impacts ABI) *hopefully, maybe • ABI • Stabilization, Resilience • Generics, String • Memory ownership
31. Stay up to date with Swift • try? Swift • Beta • Newsletters • Evolutions • Mailing List ! - lists.swift.org
32. One More Thing
33. Compile time • Compilation performance • Debugging Slow Swift Compile
34. Compile time • Compilation performance • Debugging Slow Swift Compile 25% speedup
35. Thanks Questions? @KostiaKoval
