Yeah, speeding up builds from scratch is the case I'm trying to solve. I'm willing to dedicate time to solve the problem but I'm unfamiliar with the swift source base so I would need a lot of guidance ;)
I am looking at Xcode + Swift. I'm currently using xcodebuild from the command line for the builds. However, I would not mind moving away from xcodebuild and using something else. I just figured the swift compiler would need to help or I would just be chasing my own tail trying to deal with dependencies from an external build system.
