Don't do it, the compile & indexing times alone as your code scales up get pretty bad. The debugger also just crashes when your codebase gets big and becomes uselessly slow when it doesn't. Backends have far more code than a typical client app, so if your 'successful' you'll run into it quickly enough. Swift needs more maturity as a language before using swift in a backend is a good idea.
