Swift Concepts: ABI Stability and Binary Frameworks

In this article, we will explore the concept of ABI stability in Swift, its importance, and practical applications through real-world examples.

What is ABI Stability?

ABI stability refers to a state where compiled code for a particular version of a programming language can interact with future versions without requiring recompilation. For Swift, ABI stability was achieved with Swift 5. This means that Swift libraries compiled with Swift 5 will be compatible with future Swift versions, allowing developers to distribute binary frameworks that work across different Swift versions.
