No "try it yourself" for Swift?

There seems to be no "try it yourself" feature in the code playground for the Swift modules. Are they coming? Impractical/impossible? All the other language modules have this feature which is a great learning aid.

@Tashi N, the SoloLearn App is available in AppStore on iOS as well. SoloLearn iPhone users at least should be in position to have emulation capabilities for their own programming language. More still, it should at least be available for SoloLearn Web users. Apple designed Swift Playgrounds but availed it to only iPad users. https://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewSoftware?id=908519492&mt=8&ls=1 However, there are options for web and Android users like CodeFights, exercism, SwiftBites, Swifty and Code Arcade where Swift is supported. SwiftBites for Android 👇 https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.beaconmobile.swiftbites In my opinion, I think Apple Inc reserved that feature for their own XCode Playgrounds.

Hard to do for an Android app, I guess. Would need OS X emulation.

I found the Android app Dcoder is a great place to paste and run code, including Swift 3.

@Tashi N Sorry, but, as I know, you are wrong here. PHP playground for example does not emulate web-server with full PHP support with everything useful. Neither we have full emulation with other languages (no graphics anywhere except web). And there are some Swift playgrounds around the web at sites with such sandboxes/playgrounds.
