Reflection
A Swift library providing runtime reflection APIs for dynamic type construction and property manipulation.
What is Reflection?
Reflection is a Swift library that provides APIs for runtime reflection, enabling dynamic construction of types, inspection of properties, and manipulation of values using string keys. It solves the problem of working with types dynamically in Swift, where static type information is typically required at compile time.
Swift developers building serialization frameworks, ORM systems, dynamic form builders, or any application requiring runtime type introspection and manipulation.
Developers choose Reflection because it offers a clean, Swift-native API for runtime reflection that integrates seamlessly with Swift's type system, enabling dynamic programming patterns while maintaining compatibility with Swift's safety and performance characteristics.
