SwiftWasm 5.10 is now available
We're happy to announce the new release of SwiftWasm tracking upstream Swift 5.10!
This is a periodic release of SwiftWasm, which tracks the upstream Swift 5.10 release. As for changes in upstream Swift 5.10, we recommend referring to the official changelog.
For more information about SwiftWasm in general and for getting started, please visit the project documentation. If you have any questions, please come and talk to us on the SwiftWasm discussion forums or open an issue!
Reduced differences with the upstream
In this release, we've worked on upstreaming our changes to the Swift project, and the number of patches we maintain has been significantly reduced (from 58 to 19!) compared to the previous 5.9 release.
Looking ahead to the 6.0 release, we've already completed all the upstreaming work, meaning that the compiler and standard library sources are now completely in sync with the official Swift repository. Stay tuned for the upcoming releases!
