Inject
Hot Reloading for Swift applications
Hot reloading workflow helper that enables you to save hours of time each week, regardless if you are using UIKit, AppKit or SwiftUI. Hot reloading is a technique allowing you to get rid of compiling your whole application and avoiding deploy/restart cycles as much as possible, all while allowing you to edit your running application code and see changes reflected as close as possible to real-time. This makes you significantly more productive by reducing the time you spend waiting for apps to rebuild, restart, re-navigate to the previous location where you were in the app itself, re-produce the data you need. You don’t need to add conditional compilation or remove Inject code from your applications for production, it's already designed to behave as no-op inlined code that will get stripped by LLVM in non-debug builds. -

iOS Interview Questions
iOS interview questions
This repository collects a broad, categorized list of interview questions (with expected answers) that are commonly asked in iOS or Swift engineering interviews. Topics range from language fundamentals (memory management, ARC, value vs. reference types), to UIKit/SwiftUI, concurrency, Grand Central Dispatch, background execution, networking, design patterns, system frameworks, and architecture decisions. Each question is usually backed by sample explanations or code snippets, helping candidates understand not just what to answer but why it matters and how to reason about tradeoffs. Because the repo is maintained, it evolves to reflect changes in the iOS ecosystem: for example, newer Swift concurrency, Combine, SwiftUI, structured concurrency, or recent platform APIs. Many interviewers and candidates use it as a structured prep tool: reviewing categories, doing mock answers, or drilling tricky concepts. -

Cache
Nothing but Cache
Cache doesn't claim to be unique in this area, but it's not another monster library that gives you a god's power. It does nothing but caching, but it does it well. It offers a good public API with out-of-box implementations and great customization possibilities. Cache utilizes Codable in Swift 4 to perform serialization. The cache is built based on a Chain-of-responsibility pattern, in which there are many processing objects, each knows how to do 1 task and delegates to the next one, so can you compose Storage the way you like. All Storage now are generic by default, so you can get a type of safety experience. Once you create a Storage, it has a type constraint that you don't need to specify a type for each operation afterward. -

Carbon library
A declarative library for building component-based user interfaces
A declarative library for building component-based user interfaces in UITableView and UICollectionView. Provides a declarative design with the power of diffing algorithm for building list UIs. Declare the component once, it can be reused regardless kind of the list element. Solves the various problems by architecture and algorithm without destructing UIKit. Carbon is a library for building component-based user interfaces in UITableView and UICollectionView inspired by SwiftUI and React. This make it painless to build and maintain the complex UIs. Since components made with Carbon can be works directly on SwiftUI, the cost of future migration can be greatly reduced. Uses DifferenceKit which is highly optimized based on Paul Heckel’s paper for diffing. Declarative design and diffing algorithm make your code more predictable, debugging easier and providing beautiful animations to users. -

DeckTransition
A library to recreate the iOS Apple Music now playing transition
DeckTransition is an attempt to recreate the card-like transition found in the iOS 10 Apple Music and iMessage apps. The transition can be called from code or using a storyboard. To use via storyboards, just setup a custom segue (kind set to custom), and set the class to DeckSegue. Set modalPresentationCapturesStatusBarAppearance to true in your modal view controller, and override the preferredStatusBarStyle variable to return .lightContent. By default, DeckTransition has a swipe-to-dismiss gesture which is automatically enabled when your modalʼs main UIScrollView is scrolled to the top. DeckTransition has an internal heuristic to determine which UIScrollView should be tracked for the swipe-to-dismiss gesture. In general, this should be sufficient for and cover most use cases. -

Design Patterns in Swift
Design Patterns implemented in Swift
Design-Patterns-In-Swift is a repository that translates classic software engineering design patterns (from sources like the Gang of Four) into Swift code examples, so you can see how those patterns look in a modern, strongly typed, object-/protocol-oriented language. It covers creational, structural, and behavioral patterns: singletons, factories, decorators, observers, strategy, command, mediator, and more. For each pattern, you’ll typically see one or more Swift implementations, commentary on where it makes sense in a Swift architecture, and caveats about when you might prefer pure protocol composition or using functional patterns instead. The examples aim to be readable and idiomatic—not overly abstract or contrived—so developers can adopt or adapt them directly. -

Differ
Swift library to generate differences and patches between collections
Differ generates the differences between Collection instances. There’s a lot more to calculating diffs than performing table view animations easily. Wherever you have code that propagates added/removed/moved callbacks from your model to your user interface, you should consider using a library that can calculate differences. Animating small batches of changes is usually going to be faster and provide a more responsive experience than reloading all of your data. Calculating and acting on differences should also aid you in making a clear separation between data and user interface, and hopefully provide a more declarative approach: your model performs state transition, then your UI code performs appropriate actions based on the calculated differences to that state. -

HandyJSON
A handy swift json-object serialization/deserialization library
HandyJSON is a framework written in Swift which makes converting model objects( pure classes/structs ) to and from JSON easy on iOS. Compared with others, the most significant feature of HandyJSON is that it does not require the objects inherit from NSObject(not using KVC but reflection), nor implements a 'mapping' function(writing value to memory directly to achieve property assignment). HandyJSON is totally dependent on the memory layout rules inferred from Swift runtime code. We are watching it and will follow every bit if it changes. To support deserialization from JSON, a class/struct needs to conform to 'HandyJSON' protocol. It's truly protocol, not some class inherited from NSObject. For struct, since the compiler provides a default empty initializer, we use it for free. HandyJSON supports deserialization from the designated path of JSON.
