## Linux Packages (RPM/Deb)
57-
58-
Currently Swift on Linux is distributed via tarball and Docker, and
59-
we would like to start supporting RPM and Debs officially on swift.org.
60-
The goal is to provide a seamless install process for Swift on Linux by
61-
utilizing the platform’s native package manager (RPM/Deb).

* Step 1. Develop native packages / installers for the distributions
65-
* Step 2. Offer the native packages / installers through swift.org
66-
* Support all officially supported Linux platforms
67-
* Code signed by swift.org certificate
68-
* Repository hosted on swift.org
69-
* Step 3. Offer the native packages / installer through official repositories
70-
for the various platforms
71-
* Work with official repositories to accept package specs
72-
* Deprecate swift.org packages / installer repository
73-
* Step 4. Deprecate swift.org Linux tarballs

Swift is a general-purpose programming language built using
84-
a modern approach to safety, performance, and software design
85-
patterns.
86-
87-
The goal of the Swift project is to create the best available
88-
language for uses ranging from systems programming, to mobile
89-
and desktop apps, scaling up to cloud services. Most
90-
importantly, Swift is designed to make writing and maintaining
91-
correct programs easier for the developer.
