Woohoo! The Swift folks have jumped on async/await to bring us some really nice async versions of their algorithms.

Xcode project files are complex and not meant to be human-readable, so they can be scary to merge. When there’s a conflict, it’s never fun.
The tool Kintsugi intends to automatically solve these conflicts for you “99.9% of the time.”
πAutomatically merging conflicts in Xcode project files | github
The name Kintsugi (ιηΆγ) is well-chosen, meaning “the art of repairing broken pottery by mending it with gold.” π€―
Another interesting note: this project relies on a framework called Xcodeproj that lets you create and modify Xcode project files automatically. That sounds likes a better alternative than a homespun shell script. π

Swift Collections is out with some new collection-oriented extensions on the Swift language as a companion to Swift Algorithms and Swift Numerics.
π Introducing Swift Collections | github
Swift Collections gives you hybrid collection types like Deque, which is an array with “efficient insertions and removals at both ends”, OrderedSet, which is a “powerful hybrid of an Array and a Set”, and OrderedDictionary (like the actual dictionary).
And of course, they’re efficient. Now go forth and collect in new ways!
Apple announced an open-source algorithms project with some very over-the-top, flashy language. π
Iβm excited to announce Swift Algorithms, a new open-source package of sequence and collection algorithms, along with their related types.
π Announcing Swift Algorithms
This library seems to be a sort of farm league for things that might make it to big leagues of the Swift Standard Library eventually.
Swift Algorithms lets you do just about anything you can think of with a collection (or two). It lets you do stuff like rotate [10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60] to [30, 40, 50, 60, 10, 20], or find all possible permutations of [10, 20, 30], and lots of other things like chunking, random sampling, etc. Fun. π€

Here’s a handy library for fetching, mutating, and caching server data in Swift.
And it’s SwiftUI-friendly. π
Pigeon is all about Queries and Mutations. Queries are objects that are responsible of fetching server data, and Mutations are objects that are responsible of modifying server data.
