I hope they also add better builtins for HTTP. Last time I worked with Swift it was difficult to get a simple server up and running without a framework.

Huh? Apple provides an example implementation at https://github.com/apple/swift-nio and I would say it’s straightforward to “get up and running”.

It’s pretty easy to take Apple’s HTTP implementation, add a router, integrate a template engine and have something working, but then the real issues start, because the ecosystem and community just aren’t there.
