Show HN: Swift-pico, my exploration into Embedded Swift

Hey HN! At WWDC this year, Apple formally announced Swift 6 and its support for embedded development. As an iOS developer in my spare time, I’ve grown to love Swift over the past few years, and am personally excited about the advent of this frontier.

I bought a Raspberry Pi Pico W for $9 off of Amazon last week, and have been toying around with the Pico SDK and incorporating it into my Swift project.

So far I’ve learned a lot about build toolchains (and how much they suck!) but still getting my feet wet with Swift’s interoperability for C.

You should go for an ESP32 C6 which is Matter compatible as a nice side effect and they used it in their demos. Way more fun!
