But, does it have to be that way? I started using Swift two years ago, right after Apple announced it at WWDC in 2014. Like me, many developers jumped at the opportunity to build iOS and macOS apps in a modern language and quickly fell in love with Swift. In 2015, when Apple announced that they would open source Swift, we became even more excited. Swift would run on Linux, and could be used for more than just iOS and macOS applications, including building web applications. Since I work at Stormpath (we’re an Identity API for developers), I decided to spend some time learning more about the server-side Swift community to see how we could potentially contribute. Why Swift on the Server? As Apple expressed in their Swift announcement, some programming languages are great for developer productivity but run slowly. Need another reason to use Swift on the server?

You’re excited about all the great new features iOS 10 brings, and you’re eager to implement them in your app. You want to start working on it right now so that you’re ready to ship on day one. But that’s still a few months away, and until then, you have to keep shipping new versions of your app every few weeks. Does that sound like you?
Of course, you can’t use Xcode 8 to compile your shipping app — it wouldn’t pass App Store validation. And inevitably, it will suck. In this article, I will show you how to avoid branching altogether. Swift 2.3 and you Let me get this straight: We’re all excited about Swift 3. The great news is that, for the first time ever, Xcode 8 comes with two versions of Swift: 2.3 and 3.0.
