It's quite usable. A couple years ago, I tried Swift for Linux when it came out, and it was a dreadful experience. But now I do things with Swift in Docker containers and basically don't think about it.

There's a few things which aren't implemented (IIRC things like XML parsing support) but it's mostly things I wouldn't use or would use a library for anyway.

There are no comments on this comment yet.
