Skopelos
A minimalistic, thread-safe, non-boilerplate Swift library for Core Data, inspired by Active Record.
What is Skopelos?
Skopelos is a Swift library that provides a minimalistic, thread-safe wrapper around Core Data, inspired by the Active Record pattern. It simplifies data persistence in iOS/macOS apps by reducing boilerplate code and ensuring safe concurrent access to managed object contexts. The library implements a CQRS approach with clear separation of read and write operations.
iOS and macOS developers working with Core Data who want a safer, simpler alternative to raw Core Data or libraries like MagicalRecord, especially those building apps with complex data models and concurrency requirements.
Developers choose Skopelos for its thread-safe design, reduced boilerplate, and explicit context management, which prevent common Core Data pitfalls. It offers a clean API with CQRS separation, automatic state handling, and no singleton dependency, making it testable and easy to integrate via dependency injection.
