Resources for Apache Arrow in Swift?

Using Swift
1

I'm very new to Swift, but also very interested in its potential for data science. I was wondering if anyone could point me to some resources for using Apache Arrow from Swift?

I'd also be interested in knowing if Apple has thought about Arrow compatibility with their frameworks, but this might also be only relevant to a subset of Swift, since I don't think that those libraries are available on all platforms? (yet?)

Thanks!

There seems to be some interesting initial implementation of Apache Arrow in Swift going on since Feb 2023: arrow/swift/Arrow at main · apache/arrow · GitHub. I'm also interested in the integration of the implementation and various Swift/iOS frameworks.

Thanks, yes I’ve been following excitedly — haven’t yet tried to work with it, but it looks like a good start!
