Yes, but you need to bundle a JRE and the Scala library (~5 MB).



I don't know a whole lot about any of this, but isn't Swift's library bundled with iOS apps? Or is that for a different purpose, such as iOS being able to run apps that target different versions of Swift?


Yes, it's because Swift's ABI isn't stable yet.


Starting with Java 9 you will be able to trim down the JRE just for your application, with the new introduced linker.
