The Swift programming language is now available for Windows. You can download it for free and start programming.
Swift is an open source programming language code, general purpose, suitable from systems programming, applications for cell phones and desktops, up to and for services cloud. The company Apple, which is behind it, announced that an initial version of Swift is now available for Windows 10. This means that the tools, such as the compiler and core libraries, are all available for the Windows 10 OS.
Swift libraries allow developers to write powerful applications with ease and without having to worry about many of the details of the underlying system. With these basic libraries and Swift's flexible interoperability with C, it is possible to develop applications in Windows purely from Swift, taking advantage of the existing library body on Windows platforms.

The Swift programming language was first announced by Apple at WWDC 2014, as a modern language that will eventually replace Objective-C as the main language for building applications for Apple platforms. Apple has since allowed the language to run as open source software and distributed tools for Ubuntu, CentOS and Amazon Linux, macOS and Windows distributions.
