Hi folks,
Here are a summary of what we've discussed and my proposal for a next step:
## Compiler tips
- The LLVM infrastructure docs are valid for Swift as well, and this
includes LIT testing. Reading over those will help with understanding
the Swift codebase.
- You can invoke lit directly for r
This thread is a wonderful collection of information. I'm going to be
away from my computer for a few days, but I'm going to review all of
this and make a list of next action steps that we can take.
Thanks for all the insight!

Hi,
I’ve thought about this issue in the past too, and would be happy to help
write some content or at least proofread / contribute tidbits to a guide
for new developers.
As pointed out in this thread, a lot of Swift infrastructure and paradigms
comes from the LLVM community, but spelling that out
I was not aware of the 'ninja' commands as I have always been using the
documented utils/build-script. Thank you for sharing tips from your development
workflow too. I will try it out!
Cheers,
Nate

Of course I find the doc that mentions lit testing as soon as I send
this. The other questions (and my offer to assist with documentation)
still remain.

Hi,
I would like to start a discussion about getting started with the
Swift Compiler. The end goal is to see if there are ways we can help
newcomers to the compiler get started and more quickly grow into a
more effective contributor. The motivation is that I've had a
surprising amount of trouble w
