Apple has released version 2.2 of its Swift programming language for the Mac OS X and Ubuntu Linux operating systems.

We can't say that this comes as news to us, Linux users, as Swift 2.2 has been in development for the past few months, In the first days of December 2015, Apple announced that it makes its innovative programming language open source. The development is being tracked on GitHub, where you can get the source code.

And today, March 21, 2016, the Linux community can finally download the production version of Swift 2.2, which has been made available, at the moment, only for Canonical's Ubuntu 14.04 LTS (Trusty Tahr) and Ubuntu 15.10 (Wily Werewolf) Linux kernel-based operating systems.
