What it does

Swift is a general-purpose programming language built using a modern approach to safety, performance, and software design patterns.

Swift is designed to be the language you reach for at every layer of the software stack.

Swift meets the most performance-critical needs, while allowing your code to remain expressive and approachable. Swift compiles directly to native code and provides predictable memory management.

    Hi 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.

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…
