SwiftNIO is a cross-platform asynchronous event-driven network application framework for rapid development of maintainable high performance protocol servers & clients. Low-level protocol implementations are often a collection of ChannelHandlers that implement a protocol but still require the user to have a good understanding of SwiftNIO. Often, low-level protocol implementations will then be wrapped in high-level libraries with a nicer, more user-friendly API. High-level implementations are...

AFNetworking is a networking library for Apple’s system software for its various devices, namely iOS, macOS, watchOS and tvOS. AFNetworking simplifies RESTful API networking and creates modular request/response patterns. It is built on top of the Foundation URL Loading System, extending Cocoa’s powerful high-level networking abstractions. AFNetworking is built with a modular architecture and a wonderful set of well-designed, feature-rich APIs.

...The framework provides facilities for real-time rendering of graphics (using DirectX, OpenGL or Software Renderer), text output, mathematics (including vectors and matrices) and networking communication, among other features. It also supports singleboard devices such as Raspberry PI, Intel Galileo, BeagleBone Black and others with features like GPIO, SPI, I2C and so on, along with external displays, sensors and other peripheral devices.

RestKit is a modern Objective-C framework for implementing RESTful web services clients on iOS and Mac OS X. It provides a powerful object mapping engine that seamlessly integrates with Core Data and a simple set of networking primitives for mapping HTTP requests and responses built on top of AFNetworking. It has an elegant, carefully designed set of APIs that make accessing and modeling RESTful resources feel almost magical. You can even access the Twitter public timeline and turn the JSON contents into an array of Tweet objects. RestKit is designed to be modular and each module strives to maintain a minimal set of dependencies across the framework and with the host platform. ...

DotNetOpenServer SDK is an open source lightweight fully extendable TCP socket client/server application framework enabling developers to create highly efficient, fast, secure and robust cloud based smart mobile device and desktop applications. Why? Unlike most application server frameworks, which are implemented over slow inefficient stateless protocols such as HTTP, REST and SOAP that use bulky ASCII data formats such as JSON and XML, DotNetOpenServer has been built from the ground up with...

...It introduced a URL-based navigation system, image/caching pipelines, styled text labels, and a photo browser that many apps adopted before iOS shipped similar features. The library championed modularity with packages you could include piecemeal, helping teams standardize networking, model objects, and table view stylings. Because it predated ARC and many modern APIs, it also taught best practices for memory management and asynchronous image loading in its era. Over time Apple’s SDK absorbed or superseded much of its functionality, and the project was archived, but its ideas influenced subsequent open-source libraries. three20 remains an instructive snapshot of how early large-scale iOS apps were structured.
