Swift is a language that feels right to me in ways that others don't. I code on Linux and Windows, not on Macs. Swift on Linux works OK, but it's there that you really see how few pure Swift libraries there are. For example, on the project we were exploring, the only Swift library for handling zip files--and we asked the community several times--was a personal project with 14 stars. That was not going to work for our enterprise.
The port of Swift to Windows barely functions and in every dimension is in worse shape.
It's a shame b/c the language is truly beautifully designed.
