Swift is great. I am actually making a pivot to Swift & iOS/MacOS now. I would say it is more niche than you might imagine and you will be expected to know a lot about the ecosystem.

That being said, I think it is rewarding well payed work.

Apple is greatly increasing its use of swift so that seems like a strong bet to me.
