20. 4. Swift Evolution github.com/apple/swift-evolution
22. let’s play

31. What Else?
32. ?
33. Wrap your favorite C library!
34. Create a modulemap: module CCurl [system] { header "/usr/include/curl/curl.h" link "curl" export * }
35. Add a git tag…. $ git add . $ git commit -m “Initial commit” [master (root-commit) fa72d04] initial commit 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+) $ git tag 0.0.1
36. Reference from your Package.swift .Package(url: “../CCurl”, majorVersion: 0)
37. Doing active development? Don’t forget to update the tag…. every time…
