• Much improved API - Split in to multiple targets in a single package

Support animations when using Binding provided via PersistStorage.projectedValue

Increase deployment targets to fix archive builds using Xcode 13

Swift Packages are JSON files that describe a collection of packages. This post will explain how to sign these packages with a trusted certificate entirely from the terminal. These methods should work on Linux and macOS alike. At the end I describe how to have Swift on Linux implicitly trust these packages.

Using this technique I have published my own package collection.

If you're targeting macOS only and find GUIs more intuitive I recommend following the “Swift Package Collection” blog post from Shaps, which is the post that finally made this “click” for me.

Thread-safety has been improved, including:

• Adding and removing update listeners
• Creating default values
• Setting values on InMemoryStorage

Support for Dates in UserDefaultsStorage

Add Persister/Persisted extensions on watchOS

• Add support for builder(for:) function to aid with building complex type (thanks to @randomeizer)
• Support for Xcode 12.1

The Xcode 12 beta includes Swift 5.3 but drops support for iOS 8.x. This means that Swift packages that support iOS 8 will cause a warning:

The iOS deployment target 'IPHONEOS_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET' is set to 8.0, but the range of supported deployment target versions is 9.0 to 14.0.99.

It's not possible to remove this warning within a project that depends on a Swift package with a deployment target of iOS 8, but it is possible to fix this in the dependency without removing support for iOS 8 for older versions of Swift. There are multiple way this can be accomplished.

Improve API for Subscription/Cancellable

Add documentation

I am currently maintaining numerous Swift Packages that don't receive a constant flow of updates, but do receive updates when new Swift updates come out, or as I think of useful additions.

To ensure that I can make some of these less frequent updates without too much friction and with confidence in their correctness I rely heavily on GitHub Actions, which I'll go over in this blog post.

Much better handling of optional values, which also allows for non-optional values

Release candidate 1 for 1.0 stable release

Has lots of tests but little documentation. API has changes a lot since initial 0.1.0 but I’m happy with it now. Hopefully it is consistent and (once docs are added) easy to use.
