Violet - Python VM written in Swift on GitHub Features: Python 3.7 implemented in Swift - without comprehensions, yield, async, await, but still… most of the expected things work. For example: tests written in Python that we pass. Standard VM stuff: lexer, recursive descent parser, compiler and bytecode. We also have an interpreter (obviously…), although most of the Python types/modules are implem

Hi all, Here’s a Christmas present for those of you who prefer (or have to) develop Swift packages outside of Xcode - today we’re releasing the initial version of the VSCode Swift extension You can find the initial 0.1.0 release on the Visual Studio Marketplace here. The extension aims to provide a first-class experience for developing Swift packages in VSCode. It’s being guided by the SSWG but a

The Swift project has achieved a critical milestone of maturity of the core fundamentals, providing stability for users to invest in using Swift in earnest. On Apple's platforms such as macOS and iOS, the arrival of ABI and module stability has enabled the creation of stable binary frameworks. Further, the Swift Package Manager, which has integrated support both in Xcode and other IDEs, provides a

Here is the patent that includes optionals chaining: 9,952,841 This is very disturbing. It's like Apple has gone insane. Computer languages are not supposed to be owned by any company. We learned this mistake with Java and APIs. Computer languages are supposed to be a part of the Commons, owned by everyone for the benefit of humanity, not the benefit of a greedy corporation.

As recently announced by @akyrtzi, we have been working on a new language service for Swift and C-family languages based on the Language Server Protocol (LSP). I am excited to say that the source code for SourceKit-LSP is now available on GitHub! While the new language service is still in early development, we are making it available today to continue its development in the open. Check it out at G

Hey all, At Apple we are making it a priority to support high-quality tooling for all Swift developers, including those working on non-Apple platforms. We want to collaborate with the open-source community and focus our efforts on building common infrastructure that can be shared by Xcode and other editors and platforms. To that end, I'm excited to announce that we are going to start a new open-so

Hello all, I have a couple of proposals cooking in a quest to make Swift interoperate with dynamically typed languages like Python better. Instead of baking in hard coded support for one language or the other, I’m preferring to add a few small but general purpose capabilities to Swift. This is the first, which allows a Swift type to become “callable”. The proposal is here: https://gist.github.com/
