There are lots of great reasons to use Swift on server. I prefer Server on swift for its fast, deterministic performance, type safety, and amazing community.

Take three minutes and learn about Swift on server here:

Are We Server Yet - or AWSY for short - tries to answer the question: Can I use Swift on the server (yet)?

I've been exclusively using VS Code for Swift development this weekend and I am thoroughly impressed. Huge props to @opticalaberration @0xTim and others for all the hard work.

The Swift code to do the formatting is really clean, see https://github.com/apple/swift-syntax/blob/main/Sources/SwiftDiagnostics/DiagnosticsFormatter.swift . I’d love for an option to colorize the output, if anyone’s looking for a quick little Swift task that’ll make its way into the compiler.

Edit: no C++ required for this task! Everything in swift-syntax, where this code lives, is Swift in an easy-to-build-and-test package. The swift-parser-cli executable uses it to show parser diagnostics. The compiler is downstream of it, and will pick up changes automatically.

Torhouse Stone Circle, near Wigtown in Galloway. The central setting of stones are said to be the tomb of King Galdus. Across Wigtown Bay, the chambered tomb of Cairnholy II is also called the grave of Galdus.

I didn't know Docker, Inc. is using server-side Swift as well.
Does anyone know more about their usage?
