Example of creating an animated GIF on iOS, with no 3rd-party code required. This should also be easy to port to OS X.

When you look up how to compile swift faster for debug builds, people very earnestly give advice that seems contradictory: you should "try using the whole module optimization flag," and also "never use whole module optimization for debugging". [^1]

This is confusing because some of us are using these two general words:
