Why Start-ups Prefer Swift Over Objective-C

If you are willing to develop a futuristic iOS app for your target audience, then Swift should be your preferred choice. It is cost-effective, has advanced features, has more powerful tools, requires less coding efforts as the language is intuitive and thus easier to learn. This modern programming language is going to survive for long due to the plethora of benefits that it offers, as compared to its old competitor, Objective-C. Earlier, Objective-C was principally used for building iOS applications. However, it became outdated slowly due to the lack of many valuable features that other new-age programming languages had. Apple Corp had worked on Objective-C improvements for almost 6 years and understood that a better language could be introduced for writing mobile applications. Due to such loopholes of Objective-C, Apple introduced an advanced language in 2014- Swift which had pioneering features to accelerate the iOS app development. Swift is general-purpose, multi-paradigm, and compiled language. It is a fast, safe and interactive language specially developed for iOS, macOS, Linux, tvOS and watchOS. It soon superseded Objective-C and became the favorite of developers across the world. Several giants like LinkedIn, IBM, Facebook, Mozilla, Uber, etc. were already using Swift but now, even start-ups have started focussing on it. In this blog, we will look at the key reasons why start-ups choose Swift instead of Objective-C.
