It looks like you're interested in Python, but since we're focusing on content presented by Apple at WWDC, let's talk about how Swift can be used in various contexts, including embedded systems and app migration.

Sessions Mentioned

  1. Go small with Embedded Swift
  2. Migrate your app to Swift 6
  3. Xcode essentials

Key Points from the Sessions

Go small with Embedded Swift

  • Embedded Swift Applications: This session demonstrates how to write and run Swift code on embedded devices. It covers the basics of setting up an embedded Swift application, using Swift's interoperability to control hardware components like LEDs, and integrating protocols like Matter for smart home accessories.
  • Interoperability with C APIs: Swift can call existing C APIs directly, but it's often beneficial to wrap these APIs into more ergonomic Swift code. This makes the application logic cleaner and more intuitive.
  • Example Project: The session includes a practical example where an LED's color and brightness are controlled using Swift code. The LED object is wrapped in a Swift layer to provide easy-to-use properties and methods.

Migrate your app to Swift 6

  • Data-Race Safety: Swift 6 introduces features to help ensure data-race safety, especially when dealing with global variables and shared mutable state.
  • Migration Strategy: The session outlines a strategy for migrating existing Swift code to Swift 6, including enabling strict checking and addressing warnings incrementally.
  • Concurrency Features: New concurrency features in Swift 6 are highlighted, showing how they can be adopted to improve the safety and performance of your applications.

Xcode essentials

  • Debugging and Logging: The session covers advanced debugging techniques using Xcode, including the use of os_log for structured logging. This allows for better filtering and metadata in log messages.
  • Code Navigation and Shortcuts: Tips for navigating and managing code efficiently in Xcode are provided, such as using the jump bar, bookmarks, and various shortcuts.
