What it does
So... this is obviously totally, 100%, like for. real. not. supported. by. Apple. …yet? But still... I thought it was pretty badass. And, seeing how there's already a Swift buildpack for Heroku you could move some slow code into Swift can call it as a library function. But, you know, not in production or anything. That would be silly, right? Now, having said that, the actual Python/Swift interop may have bugs. I'll leave that as an exercise to the reader. Get an Ubuntu 15.10 system running. These instructions may also work on other versions of Ubuntu (and Heroku uses Ubuntu server).

Talanoa▲345Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
