Votice
Votice is an open-source SDK and companion app that helps indie iOS, iPadOS, and macOS developers collect suggestions, comments, and votes directly inside their apps.
It’s lightweight, easy to integrate via Swift Package Manager, and works without Firebase or extra configuration files.
Why you will like it:
Votice gives developers full control over user feedback — with no limits, no paywalls, and no complexity.
Indie devs can manage their first app completely for free and without restrictions.
It’s designed as a transparent and affordable alternative to existing platforms, empowering small teams and solo developers to prioritize features and build better apps.
SwiftMCP
A Swift implementation of the MCP (Model Context Protocol) for JSON-RPC over various transports.
Why you will like it:

Compatible with OpenAPI generation for seamless API integration.
Supports OAuth validation and a transparent OAuth proxy mode for secure workflows.
Provides tools, resources, and prompts for easy extensibility.
Fully cross-platform for diverse environments.
NetworkKit
A modern, type-safe networking library for Swift.
Why you will like it:
Create a client with a base URL and configuration for any server environment.
Use macros for paths, queries, bodies, and headers to build flexible API calls.
Enhance requests and responses with middleware, interceptors, and progress tracking.
Leverage built-in or custom logging for full visibility into request and response flows.
