The review of SE-0436: Objective-C implementations in Swift begins now and runs until May 21st, 2024.
Reviews are an important part of the Swift evolution process. All review feedback should be either on this forum thread or, if you would like to keep your feedback private, directly to me as the review manager via the forum messaging feature or email.

Toolchains with this feature enabled behind the experimental feature flag ObjCImplementation
are available at the links below. Note that this is an Objective-C interop feature, so only the macOS toolchain will really be able to use this feature, but other toolchains are included for completeness.

What goes into a review?
The goal of the review process is to improve the proposal under review through constructive criticism and, eventually, determine the direction of Swift. When writing your review, here are some questions you might want to answer in your review:
What is your evaluation of the proposal?
- Is the problem being addressed significant enough to warrant a change to Swift?
- Does this proposal fit well with the feel and direction of Swift?
- If you have used other languages or libraries with a similar feature, how do you feel that this proposal compares to those?
- How much effort did you put into your review? A glance, a quick reading, or an in-depth study?
