The main goal of the Android workgroup is to add and maintain Android as an officially supported platform for the Swift language.

The Android workgroup will:

  • Improve and maintain Android support for the official Swift distribution, eliminating the need for out-of-tree or downstream patches
  • Recommend enhancements to core Swift packages such as Foundation and Dispatch to work better with Android idioms
  • Work with the Platform Steering Group to officially define platform support levels generally, and then work towards achieving official support of a particular level for Android
  • Determine the range of supported Android API levels and architectures for Swift integration
  • Develop continuous integration for the Swift project that includes Android testing in pull request checks.
  • Identify and recommend best practices for bridging between Swift and Android’s Java SDK and packaging Swift libraries with Android apps
  • Develop support for debugging Swift applications on Android
  • Advise and assist with adding support for Android to various community Swift packages
