How does concurrency work in Swift (async/await, actors) and what problems does it solve?
Answer
Swift concurrency uses async/await for structured async code and actors to protect mutable state.
Benefits:
- Fewer callback pyramids
- Clear cancellation and error propagation
- Safer shared state (actors)
Interview tip: mention avoiding UI updates off the main actor and using tasks responsibly to prevent leaks.
