func: Run functions locally.
$ func start
try on your machine

The command "func start" is used to initiate the execution of a pre-defined function in a programming language called Swift, specifically in the context of the Swift Package Manager (a tool for managing dependencies of Swift projects).

When running a Swift package, it often includes a main.swift file that serves as the entry point for the application. Within this main.swift file, there is typically a function called "start" which is responsible for beginning the program's execution. By executing the command "func start" in the terminal or command line, the application will trigger the execution of this start function, leading to the commencement of the program's logic and functionality.

The specific implementation of the "start" function can vary depending on the requirements of the Swift package being run. It may involve initializing necessary objects, setting up configurations, or running any tasks required to properly start the application.
