About Use Core Data to save your application’s permanent data for offline use, to cache temporary data, and to add undo functionality to your app on a single device. To sync data across multiple devices in a single iCloud account, Core Data automatically mirrors your schema to a CloudKit container. Through Core Data’s Data model editor, you define your data’s types and relationships, and generate respective class definitions. Core Data can then manage object instances at runtime to provide several features. Core Data abstracts the details of mapping your objects to a store, making it easy to save data from Swift and Objective-C without administering a database directly. Core Data’s undo manager tracks changes and can roll them back individually, in groups, or all at once, making it easy to add undo and redo support to your app. Perform potentially UI-blocking data tasks, like parsing JSON into objects, in the background.
