Hello! I'm Gwendal Roué, iOS developer, and I maintain a few production-ready open source libraries that gather 8000+ stars on GitHub. They help me, my coworkers, and other developers worldwide doing our job: shipping applications on the App Store.

My most prominent work is GRDB.swift, a toolkit for SQLite databases, born in 2015. You can use it as an alternative to Core Data, Realm, and the venerable FMDB. It is mature, robust, and well appreciated:

@layoutSubviews, 2023/07: GRDB is a gem so good I am not even remotely considering SwiftData.

@fpillet, 2019/11: GRDB keeps being the best-in-class interface to your database, and if you're not using it you're missing out. As always, amazing work from @groue!

@BelleBCooper, 2019/10: Working on a new project today and using GRDB by @groue for the backend. This is my go-to for new Swift projects. Highly recommend it!

To help those libraries thrive, you can:

  • Sponsor me via GitHub (it's here!)
  • Contribute to the source code, documentation, and public awareness of your favorite libraries.
  • Contact me at gr@pierlis.com so that we can start a regular business relationship though the company I work for, Pierlis.

Thank you!
