I really miss the dynamic features of objective c in swift. Writing a JSON mapper or serializer is really simple if you learn the run time.
You can't do that in swift.
Objective C was a compromised version of small talk. And swift is a compromised version of a true modern language.
I'd much prefer a non compromised small talk.It's better for medium size mobile apps.
And until the rest of the libraries are in swift it doesn't feel very different.
It's like you're writing Python but you're forced to use Java libraries and Java style apis.
I hope apple doesn't ram it down our throats. Well their own frameworks depend on its dynamism and In many ways in my limited opinion objective c is better for developer happiness.
