PhoneNumberKit
A Swift framework for parsing and formatting phone numbers
Swift 5.3 framework for parsing, formatting and validating international phone numbers. Inspired by Google's libphonenumber. Import PhoneNumberKit at the top of the Swift file that will interact with a phone number. All of your interactions with PhoneNumberKit happen through a PhoneNumberKit object. The first step you should take is to allocate one. A PhoneNumberKit instance is relatively expensive to allocate (it parses the metadata and keeps it in memory for the object's lifecycle), you should try and make sure PhoneNumberKit is allocated once and deallocated when no longer needed. To parse a string, use the parse function. The region code is automatically computed but can be overridden if needed. PhoneNumberKit automatically does a hard type validation to ensure that the object created is valid, this can be quite costly performance-wise and can be turned off if needed. -

ComponentKit
A React-inspired view framework for iOS
ComponentKit is an Objective-C++ view framework for iOS that is heavily inspired by React. ComponentKit uses a declarative API to define UI components. You simply describe the layout for your UI based on a set of immutable inputs and the framework takes care of the rest. With code generation, ComponentKit can perform optimizations for your UI under the hood, while keeping your code simple and easy to maintain. ComponentKit can measure and layout your UI ahead of time without blocking the UI thread. By decoupling its layout system from UIKit, ComponentKit can drop the UI thread constraint. ComponentKit uses Yoga for layout and automatically reduces the number of UIViews that your UI contains. This, in addition to ComponentKit's text optimizations, allows for much smaller view hierarchies and improves both memory and scroll performance. With ComponentKit, each UI item such as text, image, or video is recycled individually. -

Katana
Swift Apps in a Swoosh! A modern framework for creating iOS apps
Katana is a modern Swift framework for writing iOS applications' business logic that are testable and easy to reason about. Katana is strongly inspired by Redux. In a few words, the app state is entirely described by a single serializable data structure, and the only way to change the state is to dispatch a StateUpdater. A StateUpdater is an intent to transform the state, and contains all the information to do so. Because all the changes are centralized and are happening in a strict order, there are no subtle race conditions to watch out for. We feel that Katana helped us a lot since we started using it in production. Our applications have been downloaded several millions of times and Katana really helped us scale them quickly and efficiently. Bending Spoons's engineers leverage Katana capabilities to design, implement and test complex applications very quickly without any compromise to the final result. -

openFrameworks
Cross platform toolkit for creative coding in C++
openFrameworks is a C++ toolkit for creative coding. docs have some documentation around OF usage, per platform things to consider, etc. You should definitely take a look in there; for example, if you are on OSX, read the osx.md. apps and examples are where projects go -- examples contain a variety of tasks that show you how to use OF, and apps is where your own projects will go. libs contain the libraries that OF uses, including the open frameworks core itself. addons are for additional functionality that's not part of the core. export is for DLLs and dylibs that need to be put in each compiled project. The scripts folder has templates and small scripts for automating OF per platform. project generator is a GUI-based tool for doing new projects - this folder is only there in packaged releases. -

Awesome Blazor
Resources for Blazor, a .NET web framework using C#/Razor
Blazor lets you build interactive web UIs using C# instead of JavaScript. Blazor apps are composed of reusable web UI components implemented using C#, HTML, and CSS. Both client and server code is written in C#, allowing you to share code and libraries. Blazor is a feature of ASP.NET, the popular web development framework that extends the .NET developer platform with tools and libraries for building web apps. Blazor can run your client-side C# code directly in the browser, using WebAssembly. Because it's real .NET running on WebAssembly, you can re-use code and libraries from server-side parts of your application. Alternatively, Blazor can run your client logic on the server. Client UI events are sent back to the server using SignalR, a real-time messaging framework. Once execution completes, the required UI changes are sent to the client and merged into the DOM. -

BeeHive
Solution for iOS Application module programs
BeeHive is a solution for iOS Application module programs, it absorbed the Spring Framework API service concept to avoid coupling between modules. BeeHive is a modular program of implementation in iOS, it absorbed the Spring Framework API service concept to avoid to directly coupling between modules. BeeHive bases on Spring Service concept, although you can make and implement specific interfaces decoupling between modules, but can not avoid interface class dependencies. Mainly on account of the difficulty and cost of learning to achieve, and dynamic invocation interface parameters can not be able to check phase change problems at compile time, dynamic programming techniques require a higher threshold requirement. BeeHive's Each module will provide life-cycle events for the host environment and Each module necessary information exchange to BeeHive, you can observe the change in life run loop. -

Carthage
A simple, decentralized dependency manager for Cocoa
Carthage is intended to be the simplest way to add frameworks to your Cocoa application. Carthage builds your dependencies and provides you with binary frameworks, but you retain full control over your project structure and setup. Carthage does not automatically modify your project files or your build settings. Get Carthage by running brew install carthage or choose another installation method. Create a Cartfile in the same directory where your .xcodeproj or .xcworkspace is. List the desired dependencies in the Cartfile. Once you have Carthage installed, you can begin adding frameworks to your project. Note that Carthage only supports dynamic frameworks, which are only available on iOS 8 or later (or any version of OS X). We encourage using XCFrameworks as of version 0.37.0 (January 2021), and require XCFrameworks when building on an Apple Silicon Mac. Switching from discrete framework bundles to XCFrameworks requires a few changes to your project.
