Messaging app with Swift

Hi all,

what's your advice on developing a messaging app using Swift instead of Obective-C ? What could be a good solution for handling the backend of the app? Suggestions?

Thank you very much!

Parse by Facebook is always a good backend that has great iOS integration.

Never heard of it before. I would say its always good to try out new services. Just make sure they have good api/documentation and secure.
