Swift Cheatsheet for Android/Kotlin Developers
summary
Practical side‑by‑side mapping of Swift features to Kotlin equivalents with concrete code patterns and gotchas, covering optionals and if let mapping, early returns with guard, collections and mutability rules, enums with associated values vs sealed classes, extensions and protocols as interfaces, closures and trailing closure syntax, and structured concurrency with async/await vs coroutines plus parallel async let examples. Watch if needing hands‑on translations for reading iOS code, doing code reviews, or integrating Kotlin Multiplatform SwiftUI; skip if only wanting high‑level topic summaries.
