Swift

Swift is a powerful and intuitive programming language for macOS, iOS, watchOS and tvOS.

Swift was first introduced in 2014 and is general-purpose programming language developed by Apple and the open-source community.

Before Swift, apps on macOS and iOS were developed using a language called Objective-C. Today, Swift is the primary language used to develop apps for all Apple platforms including macOS, iOS, watchOS and tvOS. In 2014, Objective-C was over 30 years old so if Apple can invest that amount of time again in Swift, learning Swift will definitely be beneficial to your career.

Swift is a high-performance language that is easy to learn and supports modern programming features such as type inference, generics, and optional types. Swift also supports automatic memory management and support for modern programming concepts such as protocol-oriented programming and functional programming.
