Build your next website in Swift
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 3 окт 2024
- Swift's result builders let us create domain-specific languages right inside our Swift code, and with a little thinking that means we can actually build whole websites in Swift - and even use similar syntax to SwiftUI!

My man did the thing I've been waiting for for years. Im getting emotional rn
I really hope you never stop your good works. I hope you see this. I haven’t quite gotten to the level of understanding these at all. However, I’m passionate about building amazing things and I know I’ll get to the point where your videos will become useful. But I’ll wet the ground to walk on a ground with coolness later on. Parable. I’m a designer currently looking out for Swift tutorials that can explain it to me in design terms. Haven’t quite seen yet. But I notice your videos show up more and more in my search.
I’m glad you enjoyed the video! Building with Swift is a lot of fun 🙂
Bravo! Couple of weeks ago i was making html + css code work in swift project, and doesn't even think that it can be done that way. Awesome, as always.
As a web developer, it is amazing to see another language having an access point to front-end development. Great work! I was surprised to see Bootstrap being used, it seemed more people have leaned more into Tailwind but seeing as how Bootstrap is more component-based than CSS-flexible, it does make sense to have that structure for the Swift components.
First time I am interested in web development. Thanks Paul :)
Awesome video Paul! I will try it out for my new blog, thank you! (And great explanation of Result builders 👏🏻)
Paul Hudson you are a mad genius. Great ideas, great video.
That is a great work done! Thank you! And hope to see some clips from you on building web sites using Ignite!
This is great Paul! I've recently started working on my personal website and was looking into SSGs. Imagine my surprise when I came across this video
This is cool. This is one step closer to freeing me from the JS ecosystem.
Htmx gang wuz here
Is it better to be an apple eco system compared to js

@@langahoohlo6695believe it or not. It really is.
This is such an exciting project. Thanks Paul.
Aye what!? Never thought that this would ever be a thing...
Im going to start as soon as I can...
Amazing! Simple and so clever! Thanks so much, Paul, learning every time!
Watching this video on my way to Japan, so well done !
Paul, You're The Best! I'am gonna try it!
We love this kind of content diving into the more niche areas of SwiftUI, Id love to see more Mapkit videos
I usually don’t leave comment, but you get my attention. Well Done Man 👍🏻
Never thought I’d see this day. Awesome!
Great work! Don't give up on it.... It will be on top in future....
If it is possible to create some video on the topic of "Ignite" it would be great!!!
Once more - great job and good luck on your framework...
As for me I'll try to do a website on Ignite
Very cool! Could this be used with Vapor to dynamically generate HTML pages entirely in Swift?
This is awesome idea. I was thinking about this while learning 100 days swift project on embabed html in swift.
Such a nice job bro! Job well done 😮🎉
I will build a website next week with Ignite. I cant wait.
Amazing work. Lot of thanks.
Minor thing: AFAIK the '/' in "self closing" tags are ignored nowadays. Just using is _slightly_ more correct than . The forward slash is in fact misleading since e.g. will just start a new div and not self close.
This is amazing so far. One thing Im not clear on yet is exactly how scripting works in this framework.
I see you added it to the library but I dont yet know web dev to be able to figure this out.
another one of those: "why didn't I think of this" ideas 🙈 😅
amazing work, man, forking now, have some additional ideas that might make sense
and of course, coming up with an idea doesn't mean much until you create a repo 💪
That reminds me John Sundell's "Publish" which can be used to generate HTML Websites with Swift Code... Very similar but more intuitive. :) Thanks Paul.
Awesome work with your Ignite project. I also see that it is actually meant to build static website, any change that it could be use for generating server-side website in future ?
Every day passed and I realized, I loved you more than yesterday.
I want to be a coder like you.
I am passionate like you but not that much skilled. Pray for me ❤.
By the way, thanks for this amazing Library. 💌
Praying won't work. Practice will!
@@tejaspatelia8179 trying brother
Amazing Video. Can you create video how to publish the site?
if I'm not mistaken and correct me please Paul, Ignite will allow Swift developers to create a Static Website using SwiftUI style code and then the framework will create the html for us that we can just upload to our hosting provider? Is that correct - Love the work that you are doing!!!
I see huge potential in swift swift ui like syntax for web apps like react. Maybe using web assembly or so like c# blazor
"But what happens if I forget this closing ?" You mean, just like you forgot the closing ? Browsers apparently accept the fact that some tags don't have to be closed.
At the moment I needed a way to develop a static website for my brand, just curious how does ignite helps with SEO ?
Nice. I hope the latest CSS APIs are in use. These APIs are removing some of the dependency on JS.
This is amazing I will defenitly switch from dart to swift
Wow this is amazing 🙌🏾🔥🔥🔥
Paul Hudson doing the Lords Work. Thank you 🙏
Can I build a product on top of it for professional use?
The challenge would be to provide integrated data from API
this is so sick man
Wow! I have to try this.
So if I want to make some changes in my html code (eg, text), do i have to compile the XCode app every time to see the changes?
In html files, we don't need to compile our Node.js or any web app!
That's looks insane!
For Android devs, there is native support to use Compose ( the android equivalent of SwiftUI) on the web, you dont have to use HTML. Its unfortunate SwiftUI is not open source. So for native iOS devs the swiftUI skills cannot be directly used to build UI on the web like Android...
This is really cool, thanks for the video.
I know that when you dev a website, you'd usually upload files (HTML, CSS, JS, assets) to a hosting provider to publish. What would the analog be for using Ignite? Would you still upload this folder, or is there a way to convert an Ignite project in Xcode to HTML / CSS / JS?
The point of Ignite is that it converts Swift code into HTML etc, so you end up with something you can upload manually or deploy using Git if you prefer.
question... when you have this webpage, because it is swift, could you somehow package this to then work as an iOS app so you could then add notifications, bluetooth access, etc? That would be a cool video...
Sincere question: who has this problem now days? I haven’t worried about editing proper html in what seems like decades. Every good editor now has good linting.
1:01 think they need to tackle device compatibility on iOS and android for swift. They are falling behind on this. Kotlin multi platform is taking better shape since they seem to be dropping flutter to progress kmp instead. They might win the language wars if apple doesn’t step up
More power to Swift
Would this make it easier to make a web app from an iOS app?
Will this work on Linux?
I never knew it was possible to build a website using swift. Is it done in Xcode? Does swiftUI work?
I just don’t understand how/where to host the SwiftUI platform. I don’t think that my hosting service provides this.
Hey You’re doing great job by creating lgnite, full filing purposes of swift as general purpose language keep it up. Can you please let me know how can we develop dynamic website using swift only? By using ignite with vapor or so.
Thank you!
And is this adaptable to Vapor, or similar Swift based web frameworks for dynamic HTML?
Could this be done in any programming language?
Can you publish to GitHub pages?
Incredible….
What a great news 😎
Blazor?
this is amazing
great job
👍🏻
Backend next so i can do full stack iOS with swift only haha
You can already do this with Vapor
@@arjundureja wow didnt know that, thanks brother
I would love it if we could develop an Android app using Swift...
Awesome!🎉
It’s really nice but will it solves all the html related problems at the beginning?
But I don’t understand why it would be beneficial to build a website using swift… is it just because we can and it’s cool or does it fixes problems other ways can’t?
2:26 The Swift way of doing it looks awkward to me.
I’m just waiting for Swift Next.JS. I’m gonna be on that like a fat kid in a candy store…
JavaScript and Swift seem pretty similar, so it’d be natural to expand Swift’s capabilities into the web realm
Im sorry what. Javascript and Swift couldnt be more different. One is a strongly, statically typed language, designed for a specific use case of building beautiful UI in a close ecosystem. And the other is a dumpster fire that the internet runs on. The only similarity between the two, is that they are programming languages
@@tylerfrydenlund do you know what the word “seem” means?
@@tylerfrydenlund Swift is not designed specifically for building UI. It's general purpose like JavaScript, Python, Java, etc. You might be confusing Swift with the SwiftUI framework
Actually this already exist in kotlin
for somehow, it looks like react.
Is this meant to run on a server alongside a server framework (e.g., Express, etc) or is this meant for emitting static html via a build script?
Looks like it’s for static html only
Ignite is designed for static site generation, at least for now, but the result builder approach introduced in the rest of the video can be used anywhere you want.
@@twostraws it’s a super cool idea
Build yout next Crysis in Php!
Nice
Impressive.
Damn, it had to be bootstrap….
awesome
As a web developer moving to iOS and I say, Bootstrap is outdated and cumbersome! I would go with Tailwind, but all these tools are really cool!
😵💫
you lost me at html language lol
To be perfectly fair, that is what the L in HTML stands for.
Shove off then lol won’t miss ya, this is awesome for real swift devs
HTML is a language, a markup language actually, just not a programming language.
@@cempack html is programming language, not turing complete, but a fully capable programming language.
@@d1namis If you think HTML is a programming language, you clearly don’t know the first thing about programming. HTML is a markup language, designed for structure, not logic or computation. It doesn’t execute anything, can't process data, and certainly doesn’t come close to being a Turing complete system. If you're calling HTML a "fully capable programming language," you're way off base. Go read up on what a programming language actually is before making claims like that.
Bad idea. HTML is simple enough to learn
dont already have react and nextjs?
This solution is for those who want to use only Swift in the web. If you know JS, then you have a lot of frameworks for different needs
And then stick it in a webview of your mobile app 😂
ultimately it will end up becoming html then why bother with this so much layers
This is literally answered in the video, and more than once 🤷♂️
@@twostraws i never thought you would reply
Code will ultimately become machine code anyway, why bother with a high level language?
It reminds me of a Java JSP 🙂
It feels to me that it brings more new stuff to learn without guarantee of scalability for a big project. I’m not learning something new for the sake of wasting time. I would just stick to typescript and react for now. It needs more work
Just another try of replace classic html that will fail soon
I don't think it's going to be successful.
Let’s get rid of build steps people. Just learn HTML
As a human that abhorres HTML, I have to say, this is truly an abomination. You must repent for such sacrilegious actions.
