Swift as a versatile programming language

Swift is a versatile programming language used by the Swift team at Apple for iOS and macOS native apps, server-side applications, and even Swift extensions for VS Code. It offers a high-level, safe, and performant environment for developers. With Swift, developers can write code that is both memory safe and easy to read, reducing the risk of correctness bugs. Swift's interoperability with legacy languages like Objective-C and C++ allows for a smooth transition and integration with existing code bases.
