I really, really hope that the energy cross platform Swift has been seeing lately continues and accelerates. It’s not perfect, but I find it productive and enjoyable to write. It strikes a nice balance between being strict and getting out of your way and doesn’t come off as pedantic as some languages with similar syntax.
