What is a .swift file?
Swift (.swift) is a plain-text source file for the Swift programming language — a statically typed, compiled language from Apple used for iOS, macOS, and server development. It emphasises safety with optionals and value types, and features structs, protocols, generics, and pattern matching.
How to use this file
Use an example .swift file to test syntax highlighters, the Swift compiler, linters and formatters (SwiftLint, swift-format), and parser or language-detection tooling.
