Go Ethereum vs Swift: What are the differences?

Developers describe Go Ethereum as "Open source platform to write and distribute decentralized applications". It is a decentralized platform for applications that run exactly as programmed without any chance of fraud, censorship or third-party interference. On the other hand, Swift is detailed as "An innovative new programming language for Cocoa and Cocoa Touch". Writing code is interactive and fun, the syntax is concise yet expressive, and apps run lightning-fast. Swift is ready for your next iOS and OS X project — or for addition into your current app — because Swift code works side-by-side with Objective-C.

Go Ethereum and Swift belong to "Languages" category of the tech stack.

Go Ethereum and Swift are both open source tools. It seems that Swift with 48.7K GitHub stars and 7.82K forks on GitHub has more adoption than Go Ethereum with 24K GitHub stars and 8.62K GitHub forks.
