There is only one real pitch,
If you want to make a nice app for Apple ecosystem, Swift is way to go.

I have recently worked with vapor, which is a swift language web framework, and my experience with language was amazing. It is a nice balance of modern features like kotlin, with a familiar architecture of c-like languages.

Syntax of Vapor, in my viewpoint, felt a lot closer to JS in code syntax, but other team members swore that language structure is closer to C in general.

Also like to point out, that language itself is available on all platform, I was using manjaro while working on that project. So interested students can learn the language itself even if they don't have an apple system for making ios and mac apps.
