Swift is being released under an Apache 2.0 license, which is incidentally the same license Microsoft used when it open-sourced a big chunk of its .NET framework last year. The project will be hosted on GitHub\u00a0and will include the compiler, the LLDB debugger, the REPL command-line environment, the standard and core libraries, and code from supporting projects.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
GitHub hey? That’s pretty cool. Definitely unlike the Apple of the past.<\/p>\n
It’s clear that Apple want Swift to be the marquee programming languages of the future.\u00a0I definitely think this approach of developing out in the open will help with adoption.<\/p>\n
