Factory is a lightweight, compile-time safe dependency injection library for Swift and SwiftUI, built around container-based factory registrations. It supports scopes, parameters, contexts, and easy testing with minimal setup and no code generation.

Use cases

• dependency injection in swiftui apps
• replace storyboard singletons with injectable services
• unit test view models with mocked dependencies
• swiftui preview with mock services
• manage service lifetimes with scopes
• ios mvvm architecture with injected dependencies

When to choose

• you want a lightweight DI solution with no build scripts or code generation
• your project uses SwiftUI or UIKit on Apple platforms
• you need compile-time safety for service resolution
• you want fast resolution and easy testability

When to avoid

• you need dependency injection on non-Apple platforms
• you prefer purely constructor-based injection without a container
• your team standardizes on a different DI framework already
