EGOCache is a simple, thread-safe key-value cache store for Apple platforms including macOS, iOS, tvOS, and watchOS. It natively supports NSString, UIImage, NSImage, and NSData, can store any NSCoding-compliant object, and expires cached items after a configurable timeout (one day by default).

Use cases

• cache images in an iOS app
• add a thread-safe in-memory key-value cache to a Mac app
• store NSCoding objects with automatic expiration
• cache API responses on iPhone or Apple Watch
• simple caching for tvOS or watchOS apps

When to choose

• you need a lightweight, dependency-free cache for Apple platforms
• you want automatic item expiration with a simple key-value API
• you need to cache images, strings, or data in Objective-C or Swift projects

When to avoid

• you need a distributed or persistent database-backed cache
• you want an actively developed library with frequent updates
• you're not targeting Apple platforms
