GRDB.swift: A toolkit for SQLite databases, with a focus on application development (8.7k stars)
What it does
All text below is quoted directly from the project README.
>A toolkit for SQLite databases, with a focus on application development
>Proudly serving the community since 2015
>Latest release: June 18, 2026, version 7.11.1
>Requirements: iOS 13.0+ / macOS 10.15+ / tvOS 13.0+ / watchOS 7.0+, SQLite 3.20.0+, Swift 6.1+ / Xcode 16.3+
What is GRDB?
>Use this library to save your application's permanent data into SQLite databases. It comes with built-in tools that address common needs:
- SQL Generation: Enhance your application models with persistence and fetching methods, so that you don't have to deal with SQL and raw database rows when you don't want to.
- Database Observation: Get notifications when database values are modified.
- Robust Concurrency: Multi-threaded applications can efficiently use their databases, including WAL databases that support concurrent reads and writes.
- Migrations: Evolve the schema of your database as you ship new versions of your application.
- Leverage your SQLite skills: Not all developers need advanced SQLite features. But when you do, GRDB is as sharp as you want it to be. Come with your SQL and SQLite skills, or learn new ones as you go!
