Fedil started the topic Vapor vs server side frameworks of other languages in the forum Server Side Swift 2 years, 2 months ago
Here is an article comparing benchmarks between vapor and server-side frameworks of other languages. The article is a little dated, but I’m still impressed how well Vapor did.

Fedil started the topic Perfect vs Vapor for Server Side Swift in the forum Server Side Swift 2 years, 3 months ago
I’m fixing to really dive in and start working on a project in which I want to use server side swift. Most of the articles that I’ve been finding say really good things about Perfect and Vapor. I have read up on all the strengths and weaknesses, but I was wondering if anyone had first-hand experience with both and if so, which they prefer to use and why?

Optionals are a new feature of Swift that definitely takes some getting use to. If you haven’t checked out the Swift data type primer it might help. But basically you use an Optional when you do not know if the variable you are referencing will contain a value.Two common use cases are when things can fail (when you expect something, but got…[Read more]

Fedil started the topic Cross compile for Linux from Mac OS X in the forum Compiler and Standard Library 2 years, 6 months ago
I was wanting to know if there was a way to develop a swift application using Xcode on my Mac, but have it build an executable that can run on Linux? I know I can move all the source files to a Linux computer and compile from there, but I was wanting to know if I could skip that and just do it all from my mac. Then I would only have to transfer the binary.
