Will Swift Documentation include File I/O?

Using Swift

Hi everyone, I was working on my school programming language research course with Swift, for basic syntax and language philosophy it is great but lacking of some an official support on basic things like File I/O and I need to search on SO or Google it to get an answer.

For some basic programming features like File I/O, console read line, or linking, will they be considered included in the documentation?

Thank you

The official documentation [1] includes links to the standard and core libraries. For File I/O try Foundation FileManager.

Thank you, then I wish the next iteration will include them in the Swift Tour,

I believe it is quite important for the non-Xcode developers to use Swift outside of the Apple ecosystem

Hello, @DavidKo

Unfortunately, most of the official documentation is inadequate, and TSPL is dead.

Your best bet is to get help on these forums, by asking intelligent questions. :slight_smile:

You can also learn quite a bit, if you persist, by reading the Swift evolution proposals.

Is it?
