Developers looking to explore kernel development in Swift often lack the right resources and tools. A comprehensive toolkit that simplifies the process of creating and testing Swift kernels in QEMU could ignite interest in this niche. This would be useful for system programmers and those interested in Swift beyond app development. The initial version could come with basic templates and documentation, while future versions could include advanced debugging tools. The biggest risk is the limited audience for kernel development compared to standard app development.
