We're off to a good start. We've gone over how Swift is a language designed primarily for app development, which often includes multiple different platforms. We already ran our first code and learned a little bit about how a computer runs it indirectly by first compiling it into a form it understands how to run. Most importantly, we've learned that you will learn best from this book by having a goal to work towards and by playing around with the concepts as you read along. So let's get started!

Next, we will start breaking down the basics of Swift and then put them together to make our first program.
