What OS will a Swift Student Challenge submission run on? I want to use iOS 26 features but the version history for Swift Playground doesn’t show it being updated past the iOS 17.5 SDK. So, can I still use features from the iOS 26 SDK?
As you’ve noticed, Swift Playground currently doesn’t support the iOS 26 SDK. We understand that there’s strong demand for that, but I can’t offer any advice as to when it’ll happen.
If you need you use iOS 26 SDK features right now, your only real option is to create your playground with Xcode.
Make sure to create an app playground, as explained on Developer > Swift Student Challenge > Get ready.
Share and Enjoy
