Apple's Federighi talks open source Swift, Objective-C and the next 20 years
- orionblastar 11y agoI think open sourcing Swift was a good move. I see they have a Linux port already but no Windows port yet. I haven't tried it yet because my PC runs Windows 10 and I run Linux in a virtual machine that is slow and I could install Swift there but I want to learn how it works first and get an IDE or text editor that supports it. I'm currently using Atom in Linux. I'm used to Classic Visual BASIC, C, Python, Java, and Ruby on Rails but haven't learned Swift yet. I hope it can cross compile OSX apps as well as Windows apps as well on the Linux platform so it has some cross platform abilities.
