old mac - does it support swift in xcode 3.2.6

Question

I have developped my app on android but would like to do the dev for iOS. I have an old mac that supports only 10.6.8 and xcode 3.2.6. I can get access from time to time on a mac with 10.10. my understanding is that the way to go now is swift. will my xcode 3.2.6 support swift so that I could developp on my old mac and test on the newest 10.10. what do you recommend I do? buying a new mac? :)

Many thanks!

Swift is only supported on xCode 6 like you can read here. And only for iOS 7 and higher.

So even methods are available for iOS 2, as long as the devices don't have installed iOS 7 or higher the swift code can't be executed and you would need to use objective-c instead.
