Why should I switch from SwiftData to SQLiteData?

You should consider switching if your app experiences performance issues with large datasets (10k+ records), if you need CloudKit record sharing (which SwiftData doesn't support), or if you require Sendable value types for Swift 6 concurrency.

Can SQLiteData handle CloudKit sharing?

Yes, while SwiftData only supports private database syncing, SQLiteData is designed to handle full CloudKit record sharing, enabling collaborative features like shared lists or workspaces.

Does this skill support gradual migration?

Yes, it includes a gradual migration strategy that allows you to use both frameworks simultaneously, migrating one model at a time or using SQLiteData specifically for new high-performance features.

How much faster is SQLiteData compared to SwiftData?

Based on the provided benchmarks, SQLiteData can be up to 5x faster for bulk inserts and up to 40x faster for complex queries with predicates, while using significantly less memory.

Mobile Development

Guides developers through migrating iOS apps from SwiftData to SQLiteData with pattern equivalents and performance benchmarks.

소개

This skill provides a comprehensive roadmap for transitioning from Apple's SwiftData framework to SQLiteData, offering a decision matrix, side-by-side code comparisons, and strategies for enabling CloudKit sharing—a feature SwiftData lacks. It assists developers in improving app performance with benchmarks showing up to 40x faster queries while helping implement Swift 6 concurrency-friendly data models using value types. Whether you are dealing with performance bottlenecks or need advanced collaboration features, this skill simplifies the architectural shift.
