SWIFTly, Go Cloud - Swift@IBM

Presented at MoDS2016. Swift continues to grow in popularity and is now one of the most used programming languages for mobile. Since the introduction of open source Swift for Linux, IBM has been enabling the language on the Cloud. This session shows how the new models of client and server interaction for application development enable us to rapidly build an app with client and simplify back-end integration of services - all written in Swift. Come, join this session to hear more about what is next for Swift at IBM.
