GRDB appears to encourage Codable which is very slow. It does not require it though and there are some alternatives, some of which are also slow. ("Slow" can still mean "fast enough", depending on the user.) SQLiteData uses this library which uses Swift macros to generate performant interfaces to schema statically at build time: https://github.com/pointfreeco/swift-structured-queries The alternative I've seen for doing this with GRDB seemed more cumbersome and lacks community adoption: https://github.com/Jasperav/GRDB-ORM You must define schema and queries in an unusual external file that a Rust tool transforms for you. There is also this library which does not use GRDB but takes a similar approach to SQLiteData though you have to run a program that generates the bindings outside of your normal build: https://lighter-swift.github.io/docum

Hey all, After years of working, I finally completed Beezle Social, discover local events! Beezle Social is an app that is ready to be downloaded on the App Store and possibly soon on the Play store as well! With Beezle, you can explore events happening nearby. Check out the website at https://beezleapp.com/. The app can be downloaded at: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/beezle-social/id1661982809. I completed this on my own. Rust is used at the backend. I did choose Rust because of its safety and speed. I took me awhile to get used to the type-system, but after that, I was amazed by the functionality and ecosystem. It is a joy working with macro's, cargo and code quality of other libraries. Swift is used at the frontend. Obviously I preferred Swift over Obj-c. I used SwiftUI + UIKit to make the UI. The whole chatting part is done with UIKit

because SwiftUI does not support advanced text editing options. I used some hacks in the chatting part to make sure SwiftUI doesn't reload everything all the time when a new message comes in. AWS is used at the deploying side. I used ECS and Docker to deploy the server and a lot of other services for media, CDN and mailing system. Beezle used libraries I created: https://github.com/Jasperav/Catalytic and https://github.com/Jasperav/GRDB-ORM. Catalytic is an ORM for the scylla-rust-driver and GRDB-ORM an ORM for GRDB. I am happy to answer any question! Please download the app, leave a review and ping me if you missing features.
