Swift Programming Language: Pros and Cons for IOS Development

Swift is a way to write software irrespective of phones, servers and software or anything else that runs the code. It is one of the fastest and interactive programming language which is highly secured. It combines the best in modern language thinking with wisdom from the wider Apple engineering culture and the diverse contributions from its open-source community. For performance, the compiler is optimized and for the development, language is optimized without any compromise on either side.

  1. Swift Programming Language: Pros and Cons for IOS Swift Programming Language: Pros and Cons for IOS Development Development Swift is a way to write software irrespective of phones, servers and software or anything else that runs the code. It is one of the fastest and interactive programming language which is highly secured. It combines the best in modern language thinking with wisdom from the wider Apple engineering culture and the diverse contributions from its open-source community. For performance, the compiler is optimized and for the development, language is optimized without any compromise on either side. Swift Programming Language is user friendly especially to the new programmers. It is more like a scripting language which is very expressive and enjoyable yet impactful. Therefore, it is also categorized under industry quality programming languages. When you write Swift code in a playground you get the leverage of experimenting with codes and receive multiple corresponding outcomes. With Swift Programming Language, you do not even feel the overhead of building and running an app. Swift Programming Language is used to define a large class of common programming errors when modern programming pattern is adopted. They are: Before using it, the variable are always initialized first For out-of-bounds errors, array indices are checked For overflow, indices are checked Nil values are handled explicitly for Optional code Memory is automatically managed To allow controlled recovery from unexpected failures, error handling techniques are used The code of the Swift Programming Language is compiled and optimized to draw the maximum output out of modern hardware. If we talk about the syntax and the standard library of the programming language, it is designed on the basis of principle guidance of following obvious ways to write your code that should also perform the best. Swift Programming Language is an amalgamation of speed and safety. Thereby, it is an excellent choice for everything starting from a basic programmer to even the operating system. Swift Programming Language has the ability to combine with the powerful type of interference and pattern matching embedded within a lightweight modern syntax. It allows complex ideas to be expressed in a vivid and crisp manner. As a result of this, Swift Programming Language codes are easy to write not just becomes easy to write but also becomes pretty readable along with easy maintenance as well. Thus, Swift Programming Language has been years in the making and it still continues to evolve for the next few years with upcoming capabilities and features.

  2. Pros of Swift Programming Language 1. Rapid Development of Process As stated above, Swift Programming Language is a clean, crisp and expressive language that has a simplified syntax and grammar. It is easy to read and very concise code is required to perform the same. It has ARC which does all the tracking and managing the all memory usage. Therefore, the developers save a lot of time and effort as compared to other programming languages. 2. Easily Scalable Swift Programming Language is future proof which can be extended with more features as per the requirement. In addition to this, it allows the addition of more developers to your team. This is the reason that Swift Programming Language is a worthy future investment. 3. Improved performance and Security Over the years many developers and researchers have studied and concluded the fact that Swift Programming Language offers high security and performance rate as compared to other programming languages. It has a robust error handling and strong typing system which prevents the code to crash while running. Therefore, Swift Programming Language ensures a remarkable up time and thereby boosts up the performance. 4. Automatic Memory Management Swift Programming Language make use of ARC technology as a garbage collector. They are useful to decrease your memory footprint but can add up to 20 percent to CPU. Prior to the ARC development, the memory management was done manually. Therefore, in case if the performance of your app is lagging, Swift Programming Language through ARC has got your back. 5. Vibrant open source platform Swift Programming Language is an open source platform which is user friendly. Therefore, it increases the learnability. Being a vibrant open source platform, the code is written well which is crisp and understandable. Cons of Swift Programming Language 1. Very Young to be popular Swift was introduced in 2014. But, looking at the bigger picture, Swift is limited to native libraries, tools, and doomed to be unstable after every release. If we consider it with other programming languages, it is still developing and not so popular.

  3. 2. Limited talent pool Though Swift Programming Language is growing very fast, still it is not popular like other open source platforms. In addition to this, there are multiple Swift programmers but only few of them are as experienced as required. Therefore, Swift Programming Language is development restricted. Therefore, we can conclude that Swift Programming Language through has many pros over cons but being native it is not that popular like other open source languages. However, due to its crisp and concise attributes, people will soon be using Swift Programming Language as a better alternative for IOS development.
