The Next Generation of Systems Programming
Combining the elegance of Swift, the power of C++, and the safety of Rust
Why Swift++? • Features • Getting Started • Docs • Community
Swift++ stands out in the crowded landscape of programming languages by offering:
- Zero-overhead abstractions - Pay only for what you use
- LLVM optimization - Cutting-edge compiler optimizations
- Inline assembly - Direct hardware access when needed
- Compile-time evaluation - Move computations to compile time
// Null safety with Optional types
let user: Optional<User> = database.find_user(id);
match user {
Some(u) => println!("Found user: {}", u.name),
None => println!("User not found"),
}
// Memory safety with ownership system
fn process_data(data: unique Vec<int>) {
// Unique ownership ensures no data races
parallel_process(move data);
// Compiler error: data has been moved
// process_again(data); // ❌ Won't compile!
}// Pattern matching with type inference
let shape = Shape::new(kind: .circle, radius: 5.0);
let area = match shape {
.circle(r) => π * r * r,
.rectangle(w, h) => w * h,
.triangle(b, h) => 0.5 * b * h,
};
// Async/await with error handling
async fn fetch_user_data() -> Result<UserData, Error> {
let response = await api.fetch("/user")?;
let data = await response.json()?;
Ok(data)

🎮 Game Development
// Simple and efficient game loop loop { let delta = time.tick(); world.update(delta); renderer.draw(world); await frame_end(); }
-
🚀 Systems Programming
// Direct OS interaction #[syscall] fn create_process(name: &str) -> Result<Process, Error> { // Low-level system calls with high-level safety }
-
🌐 Web Services
// Modern web server @route("/api/users") async fn handle_users() -> Response { let users = await db.query("SELECT * FROM users")?; Response::json(users) }
