Adopting Swift incrementally in FoundationDB's C++ codebase

Strange Loop Conference · Talk · 42 min · 2023 · YouTube title: "Swift as C++ Successor in FoundationDB" by Konrad Malawski (Strange Loop 2023)
Why it's here

HN commenters recommend it as the main resource on Swift as an incremental successor to C++ and on how the interoperability works in practice.

What it covers

Konrad Malawski's Strange Loop 2023 talk shows how the FoundationDB team adopted Swift incrementally in a C++ codebase. It covers Swift's C++ interoperability, which let them move single functions or entire types over one at a time.
