What is SWC? The blog assumes I know it. Is it https://swc.rs/ ? or this https://docs.nestjs.com/recipes/swc ?

Both links are the same, SWC in this context is probably Speedy Web Compiler. It transpiles really fast but doesn't do any type checks.

Pretty sure they're the same thing. The second link is on how to use swc with nestjs.

In the links you provided, swc is the same entity.
