[swift-server-dev] FYI: Swift Development Environment especially works in Linux

[Alex Blewitt]

Thanks for the kind words :) 

This looks good - being able to use other editors for Linux will help move adoption forward.

Couple of minor observations:

1. The 'package describe' command isn't in Swift 3.0 at the moment, so you'll need a recent build to run it. You could infer a source directory by assuming a top level, or the Sources or src folders, and just expand all the files in there if missing.

2. The /usr/bin/sh doesn't exist on macOS and (some) Linux installations. You should use /bin/sh instead.

Otherwise, if you fix/work around those, it works on macOS :)

(To use SDE, now you should have a Swift tool called "sourcekitd-repl" to build). This project maybe work in macOS, but I have no machine to test. If you like to give me some feedback, I will fix it for you:)

In fact, Spring/Hibernate/Struct is terribly bad, and often bump vulnerabilities to jeopardize the whole server.(After to Tesla, Chris may pay more attentions to the security of codes and coding). Netty is not good enough, although it leave many experiences and lessons for latter comers.

High performance will not be lost with the elegant codes for a scalable team. We have a chance to re-define the development of server/system engineering.
