What's New in Swift 6.2?

1. swift-evolution

   1 142 15,640 9.8 Markdown

   This maintains proposals for changes and user-visible enhancements to the Swift Programming Language.

   

   There’s a section in the proposal about this: https://github.com/swiftlang/swift-evolution/blob/main/propo...

   To;dr: Sequence and Collection are incompatible with noncopyable types and conditionally conforming when elements are copyable would result in too many implicit copies. They’re working on protocols to cover noncopyable collections such as this, which will probably have a similar API shape.

2. InfluxDB

3. Vapor

   2 64 25,411 7.8 Swift

   💧 A server-side Swift HTTP web framework.

   

   Generally only useful within the Apple ecosystem is definitely inaccurate.

   An example: https://vapor.codes/

   The problem is that people only think it’s generally useful in the Apple ecosystem.

4. reorderable

   3 2 69 6.2 Swift

   A SwiftUI structural component that allows for easy drag-and-drop reordering operations

   

   Agreed about Paul Hudson. He also just seems like a genuinely nice guy. I was kind of shocked to receive an email from him out of the blue last weekend (well, from GitHub, but with his name in the "From" field). Turns out it was about a PR [0] to one of my packages where he fixed typos in the README.

5. swift-bundler

   4 1 393 9.1 Swift

   An Xcodeproj-less tool for creating cross-platform Swift apps.

   

   - manually copy an embedded.mobileprovision

   It was a good learning experience, but what's the story here? Did Apple just give away Swift to the OSS community and then make no ongoing effort to integrate their platforms nicely into the non-xcode build tooling? Looking into https://github.com/stackotter/swift-bundler

6. swift-build

   5 2 2,100 9.8 Swift

   A high-level build system based on llbuild, used by Xcode, Swift Playground, and the Swift Package Manager

   

   The Swift language team has recently open sourced swift-build, and the community's assumption is that it was done in order to eventually move everything away from xcodebuild to swift-build, which would let you build an app from swift packages and fully break from Xcode: https://github.com/swiftlang/swift-build

7. Quick

   6 4 9,837 5.5 Swift

   The Swift (and Objective-C) testing framework.

   

   We [have this](https://github.com/Quick/Quick) — and while this framework is still a reasonable choice of a testing framework, I personally feel like the new Swift Testing framework is much nicer to write my test cases with.

8. swift-async-algorithms

   7 7 3,331 6.0 Swift

   Async Algorithms for Swift

   

   combine latest et al can be found in async algorithms from apple*

   https://github.com/apple/swift-async-algorithms

   * though current value subject is not there its not hard to make one if you need it

9. Stream
