A high performance, easy to use, rock solid camera library
A high-performance, easy-to-use, rock-solid, camera library for React Native apps. A temporary file is created. You must move this file to a permanent location (e.g. the app's 'Documents' folder) if you need it beyond the current session of the app as it may be deleted when the user leaves the app. You can move files by using a file systems library such as react-native-fs or expo-filesystem.

SocketRocket
A conforming Objective-C WebSocket client library
A conforming WebSocket (RFC 6455) client library for iOS, macOS and tvOS. SocketRocket currently conforms to all core ~300 of Autobahn's fuzzing tests (aside from two UTF-8 ones where it is merely non-strict tests 6.4.2 and 6.4.4). SocketRocket is asynchronous and non-blocking. Most of the work is done on a background thread. You can include SocketRocket as a subproject inside of your application if you'd prefer, although we do not recommend this, as it will increase your indexing time significantly. To do so, just drag and drop the SocketRocket.xcodeproj file into your workspace. Included are setup scripts for the python testing environment. It comes packaged with vitualenv so all the dependencies are installed in userland. SocketRocket includes a demo app, TestChat. It will "chat" with a listening websocket on port 9900. The sever takes a message and broadcasts it to all other connected clients. -

AppDevKit
AppDevKit is an iOS development library
AppDevKit is an iOS development library that provides developers with useful features to fulfill their everyday iOS app development needs. AppDevKit is an iOS development library that provides developers with useful features to fulfill their everyday iOS app development needs. Yahoo’s Taiwan based iOS app development team has been using this development kit for the past three years, and we plan future apps to use AppDevKit as well. Our use of this code in many apps helped improve its stability and utility. We find these libraries help address some incompatibility issues found in different iOS versions, and overall make app development easier and our apps operate more consistently. AppDevKit has five major parts that include command, user interfaces, animations, image view, and list view support libraries. AppDevKit could be installed by CocoaPods. Please feel welcome to use AppDevKit in your iOS projects as it is licensed under the permissive open source BSD license. -

Aspects
Library for aspect oriented programming in Objective-C and Swift
A delightful, simple library for aspect oriented programming. Think of Aspects as method swizzling on steroids. It allows you to add code to existing methods per class or per instance, whilst thinking of the insertion point e.g. before/instead/after. Aspects automatically deals with calling super and is easier to use than regular method swizzling. Aspects hooks deep into the class hierarchy and creates dynamic subclasses, much like KVO. There's known issues with this approach, and to this date (February 2019) I STRICTLY DO NOT RECOMMEND TO USE Aspects IN PRODUCTION CODE. We use it for partial test mocks in, PSPDFKit, an iOS PDF framework that ships with apps like Dropbox or Evernote, it's also very useful for quickly hacking something up. Aspects uses _objc_msgForward which causes issues with other code that uses message forwarding. -

DateTools
Dates and times made easy in iOS
DateTools was written to streamline date and time handling in iOS. Classes and concepts from other languages served as an inspiration for DateTools, especially the DateTime structure and Time Period Library for .NET. Through these classes and others, DateTools removes the boilerplate required to access date components, handles more nuanced date comparisons, and serves as the foundation for entirely new concepts like Time Periods and their collections. All the classes required for DateTools are located in the DateTools folder in the root of this repository. DateTools.h contains the headers for all the other files. Import this if you want to link to the entire framework. One of the missions of DateTools was to make Date feel more complete. There are many other languages that allow direct access to information about dates from their date classes, but Date (sadly) does not. -

FCUUID
iOS UUID / Universally Unique Identifiers library
iOS UUID library as alternative to the old good UDID and identifierForVendor. This library provides the simplest API to obtain universally unique identifiers with different levels of persistence.
