I program in two languages: Swift (my main language), for client work, and PHP, for backend work. It’s overwhelmingly Swift.
In the last year or so, I have been using LLMs, to assist my work, with generally, excellent results.
I have noticed that the LLM delivers much better PHP, than Swift. I seldom need to rewrite or correct, the PHP code I get from it, and am constantly correcting the Swift. Part of the reason, may be that I am a much better Swift programmer, than PHP programmer, and there’s just a lot more Swift code. I haven’t really taken the time to analyze it.
I have my theories, as to why, but it’s not something I’m really into researching. I’ve just noted the trend.
