For Swift on the server you only need an editor like Sublime, Atom, or whatever suits your fancy. That's it, nothing else. Get one of the most popular frameworks like Kitura, Vapor, Perfect, Zewo or the dozens of smaller ones and be ready to deploy to Heroku, Bluemix, AWS, Google Cloud, Digital Ocean in no time.
It is that simple, tested, proven, it works, it simply works. In just a couple of weeks I developed a couple of apps in Swift and they're up and running unattended:

And the fact that you can also develop for the desktop, mobile, tablets, watch, TV and IoT in one language is a huge advantage.
Swift is here to stay.
- themihai 10y agoI think stability and maturity and is what Swift is missing now to qualify for many domains you mentioned(i.e IoT/systems programming)

- PSeitz 10y agoyou always need at least compiler/interpreter to execute your code... unless write bytecode in your editor
- wittedhaddock 10y agoAre you developing any iOS apps in Swift? How might I contact you to ask about your experience so far?
- mahyarm 10y agoYou can do that today with iOS apps theoretically too & just use command line xcodebuild. You'll be missing all of the IDE things that swift is struggling with although.
