Swift
This skill guides you through building robust Swift code with strong API boundaries and idiomatic Apple-platform patterns. It emphasizes type-safe design to make invalid states unrepresentable, choosing a single concurrency model upfront, and keeping synchronous operations cheap and nonblocking. Use it when working with Foundation APIs, async/await, actors, or Swift-backed Nitro Module implementations.

Frequently asked questions
AI-generated answers based on this skill's SKILL.md and metadata
What is Swift code execution and how does this skill help?
Swift guides you through executing and testing Swift code snippets with strong API boundaries and idiomatic Apple-platform patterns. The skill emphasizes type-safe design to make invalid states unrepresentable, helping you run robust code that catches errors at compile time rather than runtime.
How do I use Swift for iOS and macOS development?
Swift helps you build iOS and macOS applications by teaching you to choose a single concurrency model upfront and keep synchronous operations cheap and nonblocking. The skill covers Foundation APIs, async/await, actors, and Swift-backed implementations that follow Apple's best practices.
What Swift syntax help and debugging support does this skill provide?
Swift teaches you programming syntax, features, and debugging techniques for troubleshooting applications. It covers error handling, type system fundamentals, and memory management patterns so you can write code that's both correct and maintainable from the start.
Can Swift help with compiler and development tools?
Yes, Swift covers the Swift compiler, package manager, and development tools integration into your workflow. The skill guides you through runtime environments, performance optimization, and concurrency patterns needed for professional Apple-platform development.
What best practices does Swift emphasize for modern development?
Swift emphasizes type-safe design, choosing appropriate concurrency models, and keeping operations nonblocking. It teaches you to use async/await and actors effectively, integrate with Foundation APIs, and follow idiomatic patterns that make your code robust and maintainable.

Api Design teaches you how to shape coherent public APIs for TypeScript, JavaScript, React, and React Native libraries before implementation. It covers designing explicit types, stable semantics, and clean public contracts while avoiding common pitfalls like untyped dictionaries and boolean clusters. Use this skill to review exported functions, classes, hooks, and options objects—or pair it with build-nitro-modules when working with Nitro-backed libraries.
This skill guides you through building robust C++ code with emphasis on type-safe API design, clear ownership patterns, and maintainable file organization. It covers RAII principles, async boundaries, and integration with React Native Nitro Modules, helping you write native code that's predictable and easy to review.
This skill covers the complete workflow for creating React Native Nitro Modules: scaffolding monorepos with Nitrogen, authoring TypeScript HybridObject specs, generating native boilerplate, implementing platform code in C++, Swift, and Kotlin, and preparing modules for publication. Learn how the codegen pipeline transforms `.nitro.ts` specs into native bindings, manage HybridObject state and lifecycle, design factory methods for native resources, and integrate example apps and testing. Pair with api-design for general library shape and with language-specific skills (swift, kotlin, cpp) for platform implementation details.
axiom-concurrency equips AI coding assistants with expert-level Swift 6 concurrency knowledge to eliminate data races and isolation violations. This skill covers modern async/await patterns, actor isolation, and sendability constraints—essential for building robust Apple OS applications. Prevent crashes and memory issues before they reach users.
This skill guides you through Swift 6.2's concurrency paradigm, where code runs single-threaded by default and background work requires explicit @concurrent annotation. Learn how async functions now stay on the caller's actor, eliminating implicit thread offloading that caused data races in earlier versions. Master isolated protocol conformances for MainActor types and adopt MainActor inference to reduce boilerplate in app targets.
Modern Swift equips you with patterns for Swift 6.2's compiler-enforced concurrency model, replacing legacy approaches like completion handlers and DispatchQueue with async/await, actors for shared state, and Sendable constraints. Learn to enable strict concurrency checking, migrate existing code, and avoid common pitfalls like misused @unchecked Sendable and forgotten @MainActor annotations.
