Thanks for the reply! Wow, had no idea it wasn't customary to pay interns. That makes me wonder if I could get a job with someone doing a temporary contract for summer? Would that be unheard of?

The whole concept of interns in Sweden is different compared to the US. Here you intern while you study or even as a part of your education. There are a few smaller startups that are looking for interns sometimes. Most likely unpaid though. Temporary contracts are more common. I'm currently on a 4 month contract at a huge telecom company. My suggestion would be to just google whatever you want to work with and add Stockholm to the search. Most companies here have some kind of English homepage. If not - look for; Lediga jobb, Lediga tjänster, Karriär, Jobba hos oss. Those are probably the most common ways of saying "Work with us" or "Available positions". After that you just look for job ads with words or programming languages you recognize. Good luck!
