An intuitive, open language for building modern apps
Swift is now simpler than ever to use for end-to-end development. Developers wanting a local development environment can now leverage popular Swift@IBM technologies using IBM Cloud Tools for Swift (beta) on the IBM Cloud. In addition, Linux developers can take advantage of today's most popular language on the most powerful Linux platform for data-serving and systems of record, IBM LinuxONE™.
Build end-to-end apps using Swift with IBM Kitura
Start building end-to-end applications and quickly deploy them with IBM Kitura on both Apple OSX and Linux. Kitura is a modular, package-based web framework and HTTP server. Written in the Swift language, this open source framework lays the foundation for community collaboration, building off the latest technologies from the Swift.org developer community including Libdispatch, Foundation and the Swift Package Manager.
Simplify deployment with IBM Cloud Tools for Swift
For developers interested in creating Swift applications that span both client and server-side code, the newest tools from IBM can help simplify the management and deployment of server-side assets. Extend your mobile apps and connect them to IBM Cloud services with a local development environment that complements the productive Xcode environment with the IBM Cloud Tools for Swift (beta) now available on the IBM Cloud.
