At WWDC25, there were notable updates related to SwiftSyntax. In the session titled "What’s new in Swift," it was mentioned that the latest releases of SwiftPM and Xcode now support prebuilt Swift syntax dependencies. This optimization can significantly reduce clean build times, especially in continuous integration environments, by eliminating the need to build Swift Syntax from source. This is particularly beneficial for projects that use macro-based APIs, as it speeds up the build process by removing an expensive build step. You can find more details in the session What’s new in Swift (04:40).
