Thesis Project - Swift on Android: Cross-Platform Potential

Are you a final-year master's student in search of your thesis project?

At Bontouch, we're developing and creating digital experiences for iconic brands. Join us for a transformative research experience at the forefront of mobile and digital product development. Dive into real-world projects and make your mark in digital product innovation.

BACKGROUND

This thesis aims to explore the feasibility, performance, and challenges of running Swift code on the Android platform. Swift is predominantly used for iOS development, but the Swift standard library can technically be compiled for Android armv7, x86_64, and aarch64, which makes it possible to run Swift code on Android as well.

Why is this interesting? Kotlin Multiplatform allows you to run Kotlin code on iOS, enabling the sharing of business logic across platforms. With Compose Multiplatform, you can even share UI code. This is fantastic if your team has a surplus of Kotlin developers. But what if the situation is reversed, and you have a surplus of Swift developers?

TASK

  • Evaluate the performance of Swift code on Android against native Android languages (such as Kotlin).
  • Evaluate the performance of Swift code against other languages that can be used to share code between platforms, such as JavaScript and C++.
  • Investigate the potential integration challenges.

The findings could contribute to a broader understanding of Swift's applicability beyond the Apple ecosystem and inform developers about its viability for Android development.

WHO WE THINK YOU ARE

  • Have the opportunity to work from our studio in Stockholm
  • Interested in mobile development and digital products
  • You plan to start your Master's Thesis project in January 2025
