## Modernization - More Swifty
1313

14-
As we go into 2022, it's a top priority for the Firebase team to improve
15-
usability and functionality for Swift developers. We welcome the community's
16-
input and contribution as we work through this.
17-
18-
See the [Project Dashboard](SwiftDashboard.md).

27-
Thanks in large part to community contributions, we already have several Swift
28-
improvements:
29-
* Analytics
30-
* Enabling [SwiftUI Screen tracking](https://github.com/firebase/firebase-ios-sdk/blob/main/FirebaseAnalyticsSwift/CHANGELOG.md)
31-
automated view logging for SwiftUI apps
32-
* Firestore and RTDB
33-
* Codable Support ([Firestore](https://github.com/firebase/firebase-ios-sdk/pull/3198),
34-
[Database](https://github.com/firebase/firebase-ios-sdk/tree/main/FirebaseDatabaseSwift/Sources/Codable))
35-
eliminated manual data processing
36-
* [Property wrappers](https://github.com/firebase/firebase-ios-sdk/pull/8408) for Firestore collections dramatically simplified client coding
37-
* Storage
38-
* Eliminated impossible states, provided new and improved async API usage via
39-
[Result type](https://github.com/firebase/firebase-ios-sdk/blob/main/FirebaseStorage/CHANGELOG.md)
40-
and [async/await](https://github.com/firebase/firebase-ios-sdk/blob/main/FirebaseStorage/CHANGELOG.md)
41-
additions
42-
* ML Model Downloader
43-
* Full [SDK implementation in Swift](https://github.com/firebase/firebase-ios-sdk/tree/main/FirebaseMLModelDownloader/Sources)
44-
* In App Messaging
45-
* Vastly simplified usage from SwiftUI with
46-
[SwiftUI modifiers](https://github.com/firebase/firebase-ios-sdk/pull/7496) to show messages and
47-
[preview helpers](https://github.com/firebase/firebase-ios-sdk/pull/8351)

### Phase 1 - Address Low Hanging Fruit for all Firebase Products
50-
* Swift API tests
51-
* async/await API evaluation, tests, and augmentation
52-
* Fix non-Swifty APIs
53-
* Fill API gaps
54-
* Better Swift Error Handling
55-
* Property Wrappers (Not necessarily low hanging, but can be high value)
56-
* Identify larger projects for future phases

### APIs
59-
60-
Continue to evolve the Firebase API surface to be more
61-
Swift-friendly. This is generally done with Swift specific extension libraries.
62-
63-
[FirebaseFirestoreSwift](Firestore/Swift) is a larger library that adds
64-
Codable support for Firestore.
65-
66-
Add more such APIs to improve the Firebase Swift API.
67-
68-
More examples in the
69-
[feature requests](https://github.com/firebase/firebase-ios-sdk/issues?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aissue+label%3A%22Swift+API%22).
70-
71-
### SwiftUI
72-
73-
Firebase should be better integrated with SwiftUI apps. See SwiftUI related
74-
[issues](https://github.com/firebase/firebase-ios-sdk/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen++label%3ASwiftUI).
75-
76-
### Swift Async/Await
77-
78-
Evaluate impact on Firebase APIs of the
79-
[Swift Async/await proposal](https://github.com/apple/swift-evolution/blob/main/proposals/0296-async-await.md).
80-
For example, Objective-C callback APIs that return a value do not get an
81-
async/await API automatically generated and an explicit function may need to be
82-
added. See these
83-
[Firebase Storage examples](https://github.com/firebase/firebase-ios-sdk/blob/main/FirebaseStorage/Sources/AsyncAwait.swift).
84-
85-
### Combine
86-
87-
Firebase has community support for Combine (Thanks!). See
88-
[Combine Readme](FirebaseCombineSwift/README.md) for usage and project details.
89-
90-
## More complete Apple platform support
91-
92-
Continue to expand the range and quality of Firebase support across
93-
all Apple platforms.
94-
95-
Expand the
96-
[current non-iOS platform support](README.md#community-supported-efforts)
97-
from community supported to officially supported.
98-
99-
Fill in the missing pieces of the support matrix, which is
100-
primarily *watchOS* for several libraries.
101-
102-
## Getting Started
103-
104-
### Quickstarts
105-
106-
Modernize the [Swift Quickstarts](https://github.com/firebase/quickstart-ios).
107-
Continue the work done in 2020 and 2021 that used better Swift style, SwiftUI,
108-
Swift Package Manager, async/await APIs, and multi-platform support for
109-
[Analytics](https://github.com/firebase/quickstart-ios/tree/master/analytics),
110-
[ABTesting](https://github.com/firebase/quickstart-ios/tree/master/abtesting),
111-
[Auth](https://github.com/firebase/quickstart-ios/tree/master/authentication),
112-
[Database](https://github.com/firebase/quickstart-ios/tree/master/database),
113-
[Functions](https://github.com/firebase/quickstart-ios/tree/master/functions),
114-
[Performance](https://github.com/firebase/quickstart-ios/tree/master/performance),
115-
and
116-
[RemoteConfig](https://github.com/firebase/quickstart-ios/tree/master/config).
14+
We're continuing a long term journey to migrate from Objective-C to Swift.
