Hi everyone, welcome back. Swift is a programming language developed by Apple and used to develop iOS applications. There are a number of reasons why you should learn Swift in 2021 and why you should consider picking it up as your next language. I have personally used Swift to develop mobile apps for iOS devices and have uploaded some of these apps onto the App Store.
iOS Development
As mentioned earlier, Swift is used specifically to create iOS applications. These applications can run on iPhones, iPads, Mac OS, and even Apple TV’s. Most applications being uploaded onto the App Store are developed with Swift. Apples’ older programming language, Objective-C has already been surpassed by Swift in popularity. The native functions provided in Swift also allow developers to fully utilize all capabilities of the iOS device.
Easier Learning Curve
Swift is known to be a relatively easier language to learn. The clear readability of Swift makes it easier to understand too. Like many Apple products, Swift was designed with ease of use in mind for the developers. Swift can be considered a good first programming language to learn due to it’s easy to understand syntax and appealing design.
