Alamofire is an HTTP networking library written in Swift. Its purpose is to simplify the work with APIs in client-server applications for iOS and Mac OS X. Alamofire includes a set of ready-made request/response methods, tools for serialization, authentication, and other functions that your application needs to interact with external services, from cloud storage to social networks and advertising services.
Swift has URLSession and other native classes for working with HTTP that can be used directly, but with Alamofire, your developers will need to write ten times less code. This is not only faster and more convenient, but also reduces the possibility of accidental errors, including thanks to built-in validation tools, and generally makes it easier for multiple specialists to work together.
Alamofire gives your developers the ability to easily organize different types of interactions. Both standard Get, Post, Put requests for getting, creating, or updating data, respectively, and more complex functions for uploading and downloading files using different methods. Alamofire also makes it easy to create.requests - any HTTP requests your project needs that don't involve file transfers.
Alamofire complies with the principles of REST, which are generally accepted rules for web API architecture. Adherence to this standard is not just good practice, but also a guarantee that all external integrations of the application can be organized simply and without unnecessary actions, for example, tracking data on requests.
Alamofire is a very useful library for iOS client-server applications. It is written in Swift and takes into account all the features of projects in this language. You don't need any specific knowledge to work with it, just an understanding of Apple's networking classes, which all good iOS developers know.
Alamofire saves your programmers from having to manually write HTTP, JSON, and REST for the app's web services. This library is recommended even for projects with a small number of interactions with external services. Alamofire is a convenient shell for native server-side data processing tools and a de facto standard for iOS development. Its use will speed up development and testing, as well as the stability and performance of the finished application.
