Apple's Swift programming language officially landed on Windows this week, with Swift toolchain images now available for download from the open source project.

The Apple-backed Swift project has now released downloadable Swift toolchain images for Windows, which contain everything needed to build and run Swift code on Windows 10.

These libraries enable developers to more easily write applications without having to deal with many underlying system details. Current support for Swift is just the beginning.

An open source effort to port Apple’s Swift language to Windows last week released new versions of both source code and binaries.
