- sinatra 10y agoAs long as Swift continues to have strong reliance on Apple, Swift on server-side will run the risk of being a second-class citizen. It's unlikely to have a well-established ecosystem of external developers either because Swift currently attracts primarily iOS developers. So, till Apple makes some moves to show that it considers server-side a first-class citizen, or you see a very obvious external developer ecosystem building for server-side Swift, I'd recommend not using it there.
