[swift-evolution] [Pitch] [Stage 2] [Additional] Remove leading dot after closures

[Adrian Zubarev]

This is a small pitch for stage 2 (or even another Swift release, if the community likes this change).

We all love the trailing closure plus the ability to execute the next method with another trailing closure.

someArray.map { … }.filter { … }.flatMap { … }  
Wouldn’t be great if we could remove the leading . after the trailing closure to get similar syntax to if bool { … } else { … }?

someArray.map { … } filter { … } flatMap { … }
