Marcelo Esperidiao - Swift on VS Code (2023)

Marcelo Esperidiao tours Visual Studio Code as an alternative development environment for Swift, installing the Swift extension and explaining how SourceKit-LSP and the Language Server Protocol power features like jump-to-definition and autocomplete. He live-codes and debugs a small Swift package, then rounds out with GitHub integration, theming and Vim keybindings, while candidly covering where the tooling still falls short of Xcode.
