Actors in Swift -
An introduction to the Actor model and Actors in #Swift.
Swift's concurrency features are still being developed and discussed so they are subject to change.
In this introduction I talk about the theory of the actor model. I show you how concurrent code with classes and shared state has problems and how actors solve it. Then I explain the main concepts of isolation and reentrancy, and finally I show you how cool this is gonna be thanks to the @MainActor protecting our UIKit interactions!
