Solar
A Swift micro library for generating sunrise and sunset times locally using astronomical algorithms.
What is Solar?
Solar is a Swift micro library that generates sunrise and sunset times for any location and date. It solves the problem of needing accurate solar calculations without relying on network services by implementing the United States Naval Observatory algorithm locally.
iOS and macOS developers building apps that require solar time calculations, such as weather applications, photography tools, outdoor activity planners, or any app needing daylight awareness.
Developers choose Solar for its offline capability, lightweight implementation, and accurate astronomical calculations without external dependencies. It's specifically designed for Swift ecosystems with support for multiple package managers.
