Me in a red coat and hat stands on a snowy hillside at sunset. The sky is a gradient of blue and orange, with a sun near the horizon casting long shadows. Valley of snow-covered trees visible in the distance.

A single, perfectly shaped snowflake resting on my black glove

Group of seven people smiling into the camera. Snow covered forest in the background. I’m to the far left, with a very frozen beard

Reindeer standing in a snowy enclosure, surrounded by wooden fences. Snow-covered evergreen branches hang above, and the reindeer's antlers and face are dusted with snow.

The actual @arcticconference.bsky.social hasn’t even started yet and its already been fantastic!

We're working hard on improving it further, bringing high performance AI to all Swift developers.

Yep! That link is our starting point. Happy to answer any questions

Swift Language (@swiftlang@mastodon.social) Attached: 1 image 🗞️News from Swift: web apps, a new mail stack, 3D printing, embedded Swift updates, and some community events. Read all about it in the latest Swift blog post: https://www.swift.org/blog/whats-new-in-swift-january-2026/

Hey, look; @nick and Studioworks featured in a blog post on #swift .org!

I'm also still very happy with our choice of Swift for web development. https://mastodon.social/@swiftlang/115986854190607798

The past two weeks I've hit a new level with LLM-assisted coding. Found a feedback loop: define code standards -> add as Skills -> have Claude turn them into linter rules. The code quality is incredible.

MLX-Swift now works in CPU mode through SwiftPM! Here's an LLM running inside a Hummingbird app on my WendyOS device!

I'm very eager to finally announce WendyOS! Develop your first Embedded project in a few minutes, not hours or days!

Welcome!

Very excited for FOSDEM! I have a lot of cool projects and ideas to share.

Swift Community Showcase featuring recent projects: Swift Argument Parser alternative, Swift for Yocto embedded Linux, LLM Context Management, GraphQL Generator build plugin, ElementaryUI web framework, Service dependency injection for Swift Concurrency, Algebraic Effects, Iris 2D game engine, monocle CLI for coding agents, Typhoon async retry framework, Alarik S3-compatible storage, and TaylorTorch LibTorch wrapper. Stats: 12+ projects this month, 500+ total community showcases.

📽️ Lots of fun projects being showcased on the forums recently. Here are a few recent favorites... Check out forums.swift.org/c/community-... for more!

Announcing the Windows Workgroup We are excited to announce the creation of the Windows workgroup!

Windows developers, you're invited! 🪟
We just launched a Windows workgroup to make Swift even better on Windows: improving the toolchain, core packages, API bridging, and deployment experiences.
Curious? Interested in contributing? You're welcome here. 👉 swift.org/blog/announcing-windows-workgroup/

A reminder:

Being silent doesn't make you neutral.

Being silent makes you side with the aggressor.

It's insane how Adolf Trump is still going, and ramping up. I'm sorry for all who live in the fourth reich right now.

Hummingbird is getting some big upgrades soon!
🎂 Improved Authentication (OAuth, Access Control)
⚙️ Durable Workflows Support
📒 Jobs & User Dashboarding
🤖 Admin Command Line tools

👀 Hummingbird 2 running alongside the device logs and metrics dashboard.

WendyOS Device discovery over BLE, LAN and USB!
Just a single `wendy run` away from launching Hummingbird 2 on my Raspberry pi!

Skip, the SwiftUI for Android stack is now open source.

The post details how they are going to fund their future work:

Skip for Swift on Android is now opensource! Go and try it out today!

hot take, if you want to give an OSS maintainer money, give them money. Github Sponsors exists, or you can literally ask them how/where to donate and everyone will be quite happy to share payment info.

We’ve made huge leaps with remote debugging, platform availability annotations, java interoperability, and more!

Coming soon are things like vscode support, packaging tools (apk & aar)

Wel’ll be releasing proper with Swift 6.3

It's been three months since Swift on Android launched with nightly previews. The ecosystem is growing much faster than I expected. This is just the beginning!

Making a terminal dashboard for WendyOS' container environment. You can filter by app, or get all the OS' logs as well.

I've not used Rust aside from high level exploration.
