MetalPetal
A GPU accelerated image and video processing framework built on Metal
MetalPetal is an image processing framework based on Metal designed to provide real-time processing for still images and video with easy-to-use programming interfaces. This chapter covers the key concepts of MetalPetal, and will help you to get a better understanding of its design, implementation, performance implications, and best practices. A MTIImage object is a representation of an image to be processed or produced. It does directly represent image bitmap data instead it has all the information necessary to produce an image or more precisely a MTLTexture. It consists of two parts, a recipe of how to produce the texture (MTIImagePromise) and other information such as how a context caches the image (cachePolicy), and how the texture should be sampled (samplerDescriptor). MetalPetal does a lot of optimizations for you under the hood. -

RestKit
Framework for consuming and modeling RESTful web resources
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. At the core of library sits the object mapping engine, which is responsible for transforming objects between representations (such as JSON/XML <-> local domain objects). The object mapping engine is built on top of the Key-Value Coding (KVC) informal protocol. -

AAChartKit
Modern declarative data visualization chart framework
AAChartKit is an elegant and friendly (user-friendly && enviroment-friendly) chart framework for iOS, based on the open source Highcharts JS libraries. AAChartKit is extremely powerful, easy to configure and a pleasure to use. Currently AAChartKit includes support for the following chart types: column chart, bar chart, area chart, area spline chart, line chart, spline chart, radar chart, polar chart, pie chart, bubble chart, pyramid chart, funnel chart, column range and area range chart. More chart types are planned to be supported. AAChartKit gives you easy and fast access to a wide range of chart types, hassle-free and quick to integrate into your own project. Unlike previous imperative programming techniques, drawing any custom chart in AAChartKit, you don't need to care about the inner implementation details which is annoying && boring. -

Chameleon
Color framework for Swift and Objective-C
Chameleon is a lightweight, yet powerful, color framework for iOS (Objective-C & Swift). It is built on the idea that software applications should function effortlessly while simultaneously maintaining their beautiful interfaces. With Chameleon, you can easily stop tinkering with RGB values, wasting hours figuring out the right color combinations to use in your app, and worrying about whether your text will be readable on the various background colors of your app. With a plethora of color choices available for text, it's difficult to choose one that all users will appreciate and be able to read. Whether you're in doubt of your text and tint color choices, or afraid to let users customize their profile colors because it may disturb the legibility or usability of the app, you no longer have to worry. With Chameleon, you can ensure that all text stands out independent of the background color. -

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. -

DTCoreText
Methods to allow using HTML code with CoreText
DTCoreText renders HTML into Core Text–backed attributed text on iOS, providing fine control over typography and inline content. It parses a practical subset of HTML/CSS and maps elements to attributed strings, handling fonts, colors, paragraph styles, lists, links, and embedded images or attachments. The layout engine uses Core Text framesetting to produce high-quality text rendering, including proper line breaking, kerning, and ligatures. Developers can plug in custom URL handlers, attachment loaders, and style overrides to adapt rendering to app needs. The library is particularly useful where NSAttributedString from HTML falls short or when you need consistent results across iOS versions. It also exposes hooks to measure, cache, and interact with text runs, making it suitable for rich article views, e-book readers, and mixed media content. -
