IBM briefly did a "swift on the server" though at the beginning of 2020 IBM was no longer interested, but the page is still up. https://developer.ibm.com/languages/swift/ https://developer.ibm.com/languages/swift/ 2016: https://9to5mac.com/2016/02/22/ibm-swift-cloud-kitura/ https://9to5mac.com/2016/02/22/ibm-swift-cloud-kitura/ 2016: https://www.infoq.com/presentations/swift-server/ https://www.infoq.com/presentations/swift-server/ 2020: https://www.infoq.com/news/2020/01/ibm-stop-work-swift-server/ https://www.infoq.com/news/2020/01/ibm-stop-work-swift-serve... You can run it in docker: https://hub.docker.com/_/swift https://hub.docker.com/_/swift
