  I'm guessing they clicked onto the Built with SwiftNIO link and saw this at https://github.com/apple/swift-nio.

• Is it possible/straightforward to have a webserver baked in to an iOS app?

  In addition to what others have said, SwiftNIO is a possible low-level web server framework.

• Apple Announces Full Swift Rewrite of the Foundation Framework

  You could take a look a swift-nio (https://github.com/apple/swift-nio) which is a pretty high-throughput system. swift-nio does this using some reference-counted GC where it simplifies the code and doesn't affect performance. Otherwise, value-types are used which incur no GC overhead (unless they are copy-on-write, and backed by something that requires reference counting).

• Are there any examples of major or highly complex software written solely or at-least primarily in Swift?

  The UI and the Core are mainly written by Swift. The proxy server is powered by Apple Swift-NIO. Some critical parts (deal with low-level system APIs, high performant JSON Parser, de/compression, protobuf, BoringSSL,...) are written by Objective-C and C. For some parts that deal with Pointer, or C library, I continue using Objective-C since it's easier than using a bunch of Unsafe Swift classes (UnsafePointer, UnsafeMutablePointer, UnsafeRawPointer, etc)

  Because they need it?

  Apple discontinued macOS server, i bet they use Linux in some of their servers

  All their networking related libs are available and tested for Linux [1, 2]

  Let's not forget that they package Swift for Linux, and now also for Windows [3]

  Swift is crossplatform language (you not wanting to understand it doesn't change this fact), it's not a macOS framework

• What is the simplest way to have local http server in iOS app?
  4 projects | /r/iOSProgramming | 20 Apr 2022

  I would look at NIO or something that uses it, like https://diamantidis.github.io/2019/10/27/swift-nio-server-in-an-ios-app

• Update app from external source (maybe?)
  2 projects | /r/swift | 7 Apr 2022

  i use swiftnio to spin up http servers. lots of documentation online. your app logic will be the same as ios but without swiftui and uikit.

• Any tutorials you recommend for URLSession?
  2 projects | /r/swift | 25 Feb 2022

  Depending on what you need, SwiftNIO might do the trick.
