I would like to prepare the environment for working with Swift on Ubuntu 16.04. I installed Swift and Atom editor. I installed the Script package, which allows me to run code from the Atom editor. Generally it is nice when I compile and run one file (Ctrl+Shift+B shortcut). The problem is when I would like to build a project composed of several files. Classes defined in the other files (not the one I compile) are not visible (compilation error). Is it possible to configure the editor to compile and run the entire project? How to import external library, eg ObjectMapper ?

For dependencies, you should use Swift Package Manager. You can check how Vapor is built - it is prepared for build apps for Ubuntu too. Also, Vapor toolbox would help you with other projects https://docs.vapor.codes/2.0/getting-started/install-on-ubuntu/

You can build a Swift project using VS Code + Swift Development Environment extension If steps on the link above are not clear enough, I've put more details in a blog post
