I've been working with Swift on the Server for over eight years now, and continue being amazed by the rapid growth of Swift. As both a language and an ecosystem, year after year we're making big strides. |
My dream of Swift becoming a true cross-platform alternative for C and C++ is increasingly becoming a reality. It's therefore of no surprise to me that a viable SwiftUI-like library for Gnome would come to life. |
Alongside Apple's increased efforts on supporting Swift Web Assembly and Embedded Swift, the future is looking bright! |

Sebastien and Joannis have ran the first quarterly SSWG-organised online meetup on Server-Side Swift. Having taken place on April 24th, we're continuing to see the community grow. There was a lot of interaction in the chat, before and after the event. We're looking forward to seeing you the next edition. |

Benchmarking is important for any performance-critical code. Be it a web-framework, iOS app or SwiftNIO itself. This package by ordo-one provides a super easy way to benchmark your code, compare changes against a baseline and get thorough output. This package was featured on Swift.org for a good reason, well deserved! |
