Are we likely to see a viable Rails/Django type framework for Swift, now its been made available for Linux?

I dont believe that this would be possible even if Apple was backing such a framework, which officially is not.

You rarely see a situation where a newcomer can take from day one on any well established player, on any sector.

I still remember the buzz when Toyota was to join F1. "Experts" where predicting a championship in 3 years time, because of bigger pockets compared to others teams. Well, never happened.

Swift is really not the right language for web development IMO. Doing this would be foolish.
