Kotlin, which has very similar syntax and language goals as swift, though a different runtime of course, does it also suffer from long compilation times for some expressions due to type checking?
Not much experience with multiplatform Kotlin. But Kotlin in the JVM compiles fairly large project +200k lines without cache in few minutes < 3, incremental compilations in the millisecond range maybe a few seconds if large chances were made
Kotlin has lot of similar type inference as Swift (and is in fact 80% syntax identical, though this is just a point of trivia), so I wonder why Kotlin doesn't get this "type-checker cannot compile this expression" error like Swift does, for longer expressions?
