Can't wait for the day when they're done deciding to only make major releases every year, and actually settle on a common syntax and platform for the language, will be great not having to worry about my source code blowing up...
... then again, seeing some actual refactor support in Xcode would be pretty great too, but you can't wish for too much at once.
- atemerev 10y agoAppCode delivers fantastic refactoring support. $20 per month is not that expensive, and licenses for open source development are free.
- timjver 10y agoA major release doesn't necessarily have any breaking changes. Swift 4 will contain some breaking changes for sure, but Swift 5 might not.
- eitland 10y agoWhat is the point of making it a major release then except for marketing?
- knocte 10y agoIt's a matter of taste. As for me, that I tinkle more with .NET, I see their (Swift's) grass greener in the fact that they are not afraid of making breaking changes if they truly benefit the platform, something which I don't see MS doing anytime soon.
