Is Swift compatible with existing Objective-C codebases?
Yes, Swift is compatible with existing Objective-C codebases. In fact, Swift was designed to be interoperable with Objective-C, allowing developers to use both languages within the same project. This means you can gradually migrate your Objective-C code to Swift or vice versa without having to rewrite everything from scratch. Swift can directly import and use Objective-C classes, and Objective-C can also import and use Swift code. However, there are some differences between the two languages that you need to be aware of, such as syntax and certain language features. Overall, Swift provides a seamless transition path for developers while leveraging the power of both languages.
