Is it possible to create a Telegram bot using Swift, and is it reasonable?

Question

Bots

Started learning programming with Swift. I got interested in the question: is it possible to create a Telegram bot using this language, and is it reasonable?

Answer 1

It's possible, I'll allow it.
Some have already implemented:

Answer 2

Yes, of course you can! As for wisdom, let's think about it. Obviously, after development, this code will have to work on some Linux based server, and this is where problems may arise. The fact is that under Linix, the main Swift framework - Foundation, has not yet been fully ported. From here, some problems may arise, in particular, an incompletely implemented URLSession Class.
PS Swift is very cool, but it is very young and therefore it is too early to put it on the server, in view of the problems mentioned above.
PPS But for developing Swift skills on macOS - yes, of course, there will be no problems in writing such a bot. Welcome as they say...

Answer 3

It's smart to use Go.
