That&rsquo;s enough for me to work occasionally on that.</p> <p>I like Swift very much, and I have had more fun developing in Swift than in Rust or C++ recently. But, there is a small catch with Swift outside the Apple ecosystem: its adaptability to other platforms sometimes, mostly on some Linux distributions. As an example, even though Swift is a general-purpose programming language for multiple platforms and OSs, its official support does not include NixOS, a Linux distribution I have been using for a few months now.</p>
