Top Benefits of Swift for iOS App Development
2

• About the Swift programming language, what is
  trending?
• In a world in which its incredibly difficult to
  break into the Top 25 of language rankings, let
  alone the Top 10, Swift managed the chore in less
  than four years.

3
Super Open-Source Community

• On 3rd Dec 2015, Apple announced Swift to be an
  open source iOS programming language.
• The benefit of a programming language being an
  open source is that there are a lot more chances
  to make it a developer-friendly programming
  language.

4
Easy Code Readability

• Swift is one programming language whose code is
  easiest to read and write.
• This is just a simple syntax for using the For-In
  method with iPhone app developmentlanguage
  Swift.

5
Easy Code Maintenance
6

• C always had this drawback to maintain two code
  files to improve the build time and the
  efficiency of the code developed using C (.h)
  header file and (.m) implementation file.
• But, with Swift, all the content of the header
  (.h) and implementation (.m) files are combined
  in just one file that is (.swift).
• So, iPhone app developers dont need to maintain
  two code files in Swift and can work on more
  functional areas such as app logic.

Speedy App Development
8

• When we talk about speed, this is a must-read
  post by Maxim Zaks on 10 thousand times faster
  Swift. 
• Here, he explains how he brought FlatBuffers to
  Swift which proved Swift to be much, much faster
  than any other language.
• Have a look at the previous image as well. It
  says that Swift programming language is around
  2.6x faster than Objective C.

9
Compatible with Objective-C

• Swift is similar to C, but it is not made out of
  C programming language.
• iPhone app developers import the framework of
  Objective-C and use its classes and methods using
  Swift syntax. So, interoperability of Swift with
  Objective-C let the developers utilize the
  Objective-C APIs.

10
Less error-prone

• Nil (null) pointers are handled in different ways
  in Objective-C.
• Swift comes with an option to define the values
  as optional types or value types.
• This means, while defining the method, the iPhone
  app developer can define whether the value exists
  or it is nil (null).

11
Supported by Multiple Devices

• Swift is a programming language developed by
  Apple Inc. that supports iPhone, iPad, Apple
  Watch, Apple TV and Mac devices.
• Swift is not just limited to, support Apple
  devices, but, Linux and Windows devices as well.
• Swift is not going to just limit it to Apple
  devices. It will support multiple devices across
  the technology world.

12
Supported by Dynamic Libraries

• What are Dynamic Libraries?
• Dynamic libraries are executable codes that help
  to link one version of the Swift app to different
  versions of the app.
• In Swift, dynamic libraries work to update the
  apps. The new version code is uploaded to the
  memory. This reduces the initial size of the
  Swift app making it the most performing app.

13
Backed by Playgrounds
14

• The beginners can initiate learning Swift with
  data visualizations without having the in-depth
  knowledge of the Swift programming language.
• The experts use Swift Playgrounds to write the
  code and test it without creating an entire app.

15
Improved Performance

• As per Apples announcement, Swift is 3.4X
  quicker than Objective C.
•  Some research and study of tech experts prove
  code execution is more quicker than Objective C. 
• Swift supports dynamic libraries and multiple
  devices that improve the speed at which the apps
  are developed and updated.
