Apple Inc.
This book can be downloaded and read in iBooks on your Mac or iOS device.
Description
Swift is a new programming language for creating iOS, OS X, watchOS, and tvOS apps. Swift builds on the best of C and Objective-C, without the constraints of C compatibility. Swift adopts safe programming patterns and adds modern features to make programming easier, more flexible, and more fun. Swift’s clean slate, backed by the mature and much-loved Cocoa and Cocoa Touch frameworks, is an opportunity to reimagine how software development works.
This book provides:
- A tour of the language.
- A detailed guide delving into each language feature.
- A formal reference for the language.

Spread love
I can't believe that swift will be open source and use commercially. I have been waiting this moment for year and almost in half.("thank you apple so much")💖💜💜💜
Fantastic !
Swift is clearly a labor of love, attempting to solve some real problems and simultaneously expose a generation of programmers to some higher order functions. A great update to a growing language!
ePub
The ePub does not allow for exporting to non iOS devices. Somewhat ironic given Swift will be open source.
