Testing the Swift C compatibility with Raylib
Since Ladybird team abandoned their Swift adoption for the browser I heard a lot of criticism about the Swift ecosystem and the interaction between Swift and C/C++ projects. My usage of Swift is mainly for command line tools, recreational programming (like Advent of Code 2023 and previous years) or Metal programming. In my previous experiments I really enjoyed Swift, and actually preferred it to some other programming languages like Rust. However it seems that programmers have wrong opinions about this programming language, especially about its accessibility (no it is not only for Apple platforms) and its actual power wrapping C/C++ libraries.
