Apple Makes Swift Build Open Source and Renames Swift Playgrounds

  • Swift Build Goes Open Source: Over the weekend, Apple announced that it is making Swift Build, the build engine used by Xcode and for internal projects, open source. This move aims to address user confusion caused by having two different build systems (Swift Package Manager and Xcode) and paves the way for new features and performance optimizations across all platforms.
  • Swift Playground Name Change: Apple also slightly renamed Swift Playgrounds to Swift Playground in its latest update. The singular name change is seen as a subtle but meaningful shift, emphasizing that the app is a single, cohesive environment for learning and experimenting with Swift coding on iPad and Mac.
