[Swift-devel] Try the "TrySwift" pre-release snapshot

[Michael Wilde]

Dear All,

David Kelly of the Swift team has developed a web interface that lets you sample the Swift language via a web interface:

  http://swift-lang.org/tryswift

You paste in and run Swift scripts; apps launched by your scripts are run on a few sandbox VMs. Swift tutorial text is presented in a side-bar for you to try.

The goal is to let visitors to the Swift web quickly explore the language with no installation or setup.

Its not quite ready to advertise and link to it from the Swift web, but we'd love to get your early feedback on this pre-release snapshot of the interface. Eventually, much of the Swift tutorial will be available to try from the companion frames of the interface.

Please send comments and ideas for improvements back to swift-devel at ci.uchicago.edu.

Thanks, and happy swifting!

- Mike, for the Swift Team
