TIL Swift weekly newsletter; Read a couple of very promising Swift proposals
Listened issue #2 Scaling A Codeless Open Source Swift Community of of Swift Community Podcast.
Thanks to the podcast I have subscribed to swift weekly newsletter, a community-driven weekly newsletter about what’s happening in the Swift open source projects at Swift.org. It’s so unexpected to find in Swift resource in issue 126 reference of Jeremy Howard from fast.ai. Jeremy’s try to use Swift is interesting. Interesting his evaluation of Swift.
Wow, Swift discusses inclusion of ordered collections diffing. Not that I needed such functionality ever. But discussion of such complex functionality to standard library is a good sign. By the way, this could change way of updating datasource of table views in iOS and macOS.
Stephen Celis from PointFree proposes for Swift to treat keypaths expressions like functions. That’s interesting.
Fuzz tests for Swift proposal! So many crazy thing people are doing in Swift!
