A Swift library that simplifies state management in iOS apps by providing a simple interface to change state and subscribe to changes.
Delta is a Swift library that simplifies state management in iOS applications by providing a centralized interface to change state and subscribe to its changes. It solves the problem of custom state management logic being spread throughout view controllers, making apps harder to maintain and test.
iOS developers building applications with complex state management needs, especially those who want to avoid scattering state logic across view controllers or integrate with reactive frameworks.
Developers choose Delta because it offers a simple, framework-agnostic approach to state management that can be used standalone or with reactive extensions, promoting cleaner architecture and better testability without forcing a specific reactive paradigm.
Managing state is hard. Delta aims to make it simple.

Delta provides a single interface to modify and observe state, reducing scattered logic in view controllers and improving maintainability, as emphasized in the README.
It can be used standalone or integrated with reactive frameworks like ReactiveCocoa, offering developers choice without locking them into a specific paradigm.
Components can subscribe to state changes without tight coupling to modification logic, promoting cleaner architecture and better testability.
Optional extensions allow seamless integration with reactive programming, enhancing functionality for teams preferring that approach.
The README explicitly states compatibility with Swift 2.1, which is ancient and likely incompatible with modern Swift versions without updates, limiting its use in current projects.
Delta recommends using a reactive framework for optimal value, adding complexity and learning curve for teams not already using reactive programming.
Installation relies on Carthage or CocoaPods, with no mention of Swift Package Manager, making setup cumbersome compared to contemporary Swift libraries.
As a project from 2015 with no recent updates highlighted, it may lack support for newer iOS features and have a stagnant community.
