## What it is
The official Docker image packaging for the Swift programming language, published to Docker Hub as the `swift` image. It provides full images with the Swift compiler and slim runtime-only images suitable for multi-stage builds.

## Use cases
- run swift in a container
- docker image for swift programming language
- build and run swift apps in docker
- slim runtime image for deployed swift binaries
- swift repl in a container
- ci environment for building swift packages

## When to choose
- you want the official, maintained Swift Docker image
- you need a reproducible Swift build or CI environment
- you want multi-stage builds producing small runtime images

## When to avoid
- you need a Swift toolchain outside Docker
- you target platforms not covered by the published images

## Facets
- artifact type: infra-config
- maturity: active
- function: container-runtime, developer-tools, compiler
- domain: developer-tools, programming-languages
- platform: cross-platform
- tags: docker-images, swift, official-image, multi-stage-builds, containers, docker, linux
