FWIW there was a past thread on Swift (when we still used Google Groups): https://groups.google.com/g/capnproto/c/29mX3BMhNbo?pli=1 But I'm not sure where that effort ended up. I don't know much about Swift, but I know the Rust and Go implementations both translated/rewrote the entire runtime library into their respective languages. That said, on my project there's now desire to make the Rust implementation able to reuse the C++ RPC implementation (since it's very complicated and significantly more advanced than the Rust-native one), so there may be something to be said for layering on top of C++ to some extent. |

I'm interested in Swift support as well. I'm currently in the process of deciding whether I think C++ interop or pure-Swift in the way to go. I'm looking at danappelxx's start for inspiration/effort saving. |

I am very excited about Cap'n Proto, A little dismayed that I can't find any Swift support, my next project will be effectively cross-platform Swift and I'm interested in all features like the RPC protocol as well as the zero-copy serialization.
A couple of questions:
a. Is it enough to just wrap the C++ SDK in ergonomic Swift API functions and then work on the code generation?
b. Or should I write everything from scratch?
