Swift

Swift is a modern, fast, and safe programming language developed by Apple Inc. Initially released in 2014, Swift is primarily used for developing applications targeting iOS, macOS, watchOS, and tvOS platforms. It integrates features from Objective-C while introducing modern programming concepts such as type safety, automatic memory management via Automatic Reference Counting (ARC), and expressive syntax. Swift is open-source and has expanded beyond mobile development to include server-side applications.
