Just a reminder, if you're building a swift server and not deploying on macOS make sure you are checking that it builds on Linux and you're not using macOS only libraries #buildInPublic #swiftlang #serversideswift
Swift Craft@joannis is teaching a Monday afternoon workshop at SwiftCraft 2026: Swift for Embedded Linux with WendyOS — and yes, that means exactly what it sounds like.
Joannis is one of the people who has spent years pushing Swift outside Apple's perimeter — backends, Android, embedded hardware, anything where Swift has no business running but does. The workshop is hands-on with WendyOS, an embedded Linux distribution that runs Swift, and it's the kind of session that doesn't show up at most UK Swift conferences.
The workshop is Monday 18 May, 13:00, Option room. He's also giving a Wednesday morning talk on Swift Beyond Apple — Building Android Apps, Hardware & Backends in Swift — same theme, half the time.
Workshops are now included with every SwiftCraft ticket — one ticket gets you both.
🗓 Monday 18 May · 13:00 · Option room · Leas Cliff Hall, Folkestone

Sam ClementeI'll see about open sourcing this whole thing once it's launched
This is a fun project to really push @swiftlang and #ServerSideSwift
Adam FowlerWe're almost there. That's the 1.0 alpha of valkey-swift released. Valkey-swift is the swift client for the key/value datastore Valkey.

Cihat GündüzTIL: Vapor's `maximumActiveConnections` is per Event Loop, not per Worker! 🤯
Thought I had 16 Redis connections. Actually had 128 potential (2 dynos × 8 cores × 8/pool)
Finally fixed those longstanding rare 500 errors in TranslateKit! 🙏 🤞
Brendan (he/him)@lucaslove you might want to follow @daniel if you’re not already - I’m pretty sure he knows more about #serverSideSwift than most.
Mikaela Caron 🦄My talk from #ServerSideSwift is live!!
And I’m announcing a new website I’m still working on called LearnSwift .space to provide more content for the Swift community on using Swift outside of Apple platforms
