I know that that’s the plan, but I believe it when I see it. Mozilla invented entire language features for Rust based on Servo’s needs. It’s doubtful whether a language like Swift, which is used mostly for high-level UI code, has what it takes to serve as the foundation of a browser engine.

Swifts most notable use case is certainly making apps but if I recall correctly Apple has converted a good bit of their networking code to Swift.

It may not be the lowest of the low level but it certainly is more flexible than meets the eye

what technical demerits specifically make Swift a doubtfully viable option for a browser?
