Apple is forming an "Android Working Group" to support its Swift programming language for Android app development. This marks a shift in Apple's strategy, as Swift, previously focused on iOS and macOS, will now be officially supported for Android. The group's objectives include enhancing Android support for Swift, proposing improvements to core Swift packages, collaborating with the Platform Steering Group, establishing supported Android API levels, creating a continuous integration framework for testing, identifying best practices for bridging Swift with Android's Java SDK, developing debugging support, and integrating Android support into community-driven Swift packages. This initiative represents Apple's formal commitment to facilitating Swift's use on the Android platform.
