I was looking for a simple compiler to practice writing in swift code. And this app delivers! thanks team! Exactly what i needed I was looking for a simple compiler to practice writing in swift code. And this app delivers! thanks team!
TLDR: This app is for people who want to work on CLI related apps or to refine standard swift logic on the go who don’t need Apple native APIs. This will be a honest review but if anyone sees this, no this app doesn’t have SwiftUI or any Apple native APIs. The developer can’t do anything about it since it’s Apples proprietary libraries and iOS apps are sandboxed so you can’t read files outside the app. This app is also always online (at least to run code) since the developer has to work around it and it runs the swift code on a linux server. So if you are going to do networking then you have to import FoundationNetworking like on Linux. Overall impressive app for the limitations work around. The best use cases for this is logic on the go granted I did have some issues related to JSON parsing. Specifically: 32:1: error: invalid character in source file let jsonData = json.data(using: .utf8)! I would say if you are planning on creating a CLI app or just want to refine logic on the go. Then this app is for you.

I truly love this app. It’s so accessible and clean, and it makes my studying on the go that much easier. Excellent resource I truly love this app. It’s so accessible and clean, and it makes my studying on the go that much easier.
