I'm really intrigued by Next, a scriptable browser. https://next.atlas.engineer/
There's definitely interest in alternative browsers designs, e.g. Conkeror and vimium.
The neat design of Next is that it's deliberately abstracting the underlying engine, giving future flexibility.

I'm a huge fan of Swift's 'Error Handling Rationale' design document: https://github.com/swiftlang/swift/blob/9315673c003875158852579bd1f33480cdec5461/docs/ErrorHandlingRationale.md#fundamentals
It carefully defines terminology and compares with other languages, so you can understand Swift's position and preference in the design space.
