Until now, we have been able to use Swift to create applications for:
- iPhone, iPad, Apple computers, Apple TV, Apple Watch
- Servers with Vapor
- Android using skip.tools
As of today, it is also possible to use Swift to create applications on embedded hardware (like Raspberry Pi Pico, Arduino, and so on).
Currently, the Swift Embedded version is in a preview status (you can find more information here), but it has the potential to become a real alternative to C/C++. Sure, at the moment, languages like Rust have an advantage in this area (not to forget MicroPython), but it’s a game worth playing.
