Swift is the name of one of the programming languages, which was created by Apple in 2014, and keeps getting new versions. Today Swift is available not only for iOS but also for Linux, Windows, and Android and is widely used in working with Apple products.
Meaning and history
Swift was founded by Chris Lattner in 2010 for Apple Inc. Swift is a high-level, multi-paradigm, compiled programming language designed for safety, performance, and software design patterns. Its main achievements include becoming open-source in 2015, gaining popularity among developers for its safe, fast, and easy-to-maintain codebase, and being the most loved programming language according to the Stack Overflow Developer Survey in 2015 and 2016. Swift supports cross-platform development, with applications spanning from iOS and macOS to Linux and Windows. Currently, Swift maintains its status as a preferred language for Apple platforms, with ongoing development to enhance its capabilities and extend its reach to more computing platforms, managed by a core team and community contributors.
2014 – Today
The visual identity of the Apple programming language is light and very friendly. The product’s icon, executed in a kind and pleasant color palette, evokes a sense of reliability and expertise, yet stays tender and cute.
The Swift emblem is composed of a white swallow silhouette, placed inside an orange square with rounded angles. The bird is placed diagonally in the bright background, moving down and right.
The wordmark is usually placed on the right side from the emblem and is written in a title case, executed in a traditional and modest sans-serif typeface, which is very similar to TT Interphases Medium and Sequel Sans Roman fonts.
The black color of the inscription balances the bright and fresh emblem, adding a touch of professionalism and seriousness. The enlarged letters in thin clean lines look strict and confident, creating a perfect harmony between lightness, creativity, reliability, and expertise.
The white, orange, and black color palette of the Swift logo symbolizes loyalty and kindness, along with energy, progressive, and dynamic approach and confidence.
