Do I need a markup language for Swift?

I am very new to programming and need some help. I have always coded in JavaScript and I am trying to learn Swift so I can do native mobile apps, but I don't know how to do things that you would do in HTML and CSS inside the Swift language. So do I need to know a markup or styling language to accomplish this?

Basically, you don't need to become an expert in markup languages in order to learn swift. Since swift is a programming language and it is almost the same with Python (actually, for me Python is a bit more easier), I prefer you to learn Python first. And by the way, you need X-code in order to create native mobile apps. You can get the software in a MacBook. If you are finding for a place to run your code, visit https://iswift.org.

So do you create your elements inside of Swift because I know that you create elements in HTML that are manipulated by the JavaScript code.
