🏗️ What if your whole stack was built with Swift? @telemetrydeck made it a reality, building an internet-scale, privacy-first analytics backend from the ground up. Read their story: https://www.swift.org/blog/building-privacy-first-analytics-with-swift/
Great language support means nothing without great tooling. Watch @jdevlieghere show how LLDB brings first-class debugging to Swift on WebAssembly. https://fosdem.org/2026/schedule/event/87ZLQV-wasm-debugging-lldb/ #Wasm #fosdem

BridgeJS landed as an MVP just two weeks ago, and is evolving fast.

BridgeJS Playground

Bridging options:
1. Annotate a Swift class or type with @​JS to create bindings for JS/TS code
2. Import an existing JavaScript class or function with @​JSClass or @​JSFunction on the Swift side
3. Or create a bridge-js.d.ts file to export TypeScript APIs to Swift

Left side: Swift types with @​JS annotation.
Right side: fully generated TypeScript interfaces and exports.

You write @​JS. BridgeJS writes everything else.

Swift/JS interop used to mean "JSObject", "JSValue", and runtime surprises.

BridgeJS changes that: annotate your Swift, get typed glue code in both directions. Compile-time safe. Zero manual boilerplate. 🧵
