A curated list of awesome iOS libraries, frameworks, tutorials, and resources for Swift and Objective-C development.
Awesome iOS is a curated directory of high-quality resources for the iOS development ecosystem, including libraries, frameworks, tools, tutorials, and books. It helps developers discover reliable solutions and best practices for building iOS, macOS, tvOS, and watchOS applications without sifting through low-quality or outdated information.
iOS and Apple platform developers at all skill levels, from beginners seeking learning materials to experienced engineers looking for production-ready libraries and tools.
It saves significant research time by providing a trusted, community-vetted collection that is continuously updated, ensuring developers have access to the most relevant and high-quality resources in the fast-evolving iOS landscape.
A curated list of awesome iOS ecosystem, including Objective-C and Swift Projects
Open-Awesome is built by the community, for the community. Submit a project, suggest an awesome list, or help improve the catalog on GitHub.
The README organizes resources into over 70 specific categories, from Analytics to Xcode tools, ensuring developers can find libraries for virtually any iOS development task.
With clear CONTRIBUTING guidelines and a code of conduct, the list is actively maintained by contributors, helping keep it updated with high-quality entries based on community input.
It includes resources for both modern Swift and legacy Objective-C development, as noted in the README's description, catering to a wide range of project requirements.
Beyond libraries, it lists books, courses, tutorials, and deployment tools, making it a one-stop reference for skill development and project management, as highlighted in the Key Features.
The list lacks ratings, benchmarks, or popularity indicators, forcing developers to independently vet each resource for reliability, performance, and maintenance status without guidance.
With hundreds of entries across numerous categories, beginners or those new to a topic might find it overwhelming to choose the best option, as there's no ranking or prioritization.
As a community-driven project, it relies on contributors to update links, which can lead to broken URLs or outdated information if not actively monitored, a common issue in large curated lists.
