Comment on Why Rubyist Will Love Swiftparent

Comments

Oh I would love to see a write up comparing it with Scala idioms. As a person who has done C# for a while a lot of idioms translate very well to Swift.

The if let x = whatever {} syntax in Swift is damn brilliant after looking at a ton of C# code with the as check.

I agree, there are more than a few features I'd like to see C# adopt from this, and that's a big one. Proper string interpolation is another.
