You're right—and the same applies to Kotlin. Swift is more like Rust, C, and C++ in that it compiles directly to machine code. So yes, Swift is currently listed under the wrong category. As for Kotlin, it could reasonably be placed under either "Web & scripting" or "Compiled," depending on how it's used. Since Kotlin can also compile to JavaScript, its classification depends on the context. If we're talking about Android development, then Kotlin is clearly a compiled systems language. To clarify: Swift is a compiled, statically typed systems language, much like Rust, C++, or Go. Its core toolchain (swiftc) compiles code into native binaries. |
