Gloss is a JSON parsing library for Swift that was popular from 2015 to 2021. It is now deprecated in favor of Swift's built-in Codable framework and only receives updates to support migration.
Use cases
- parse json in swift
- decode json models in ios app
- migrate gloss models to codable
- serialize swift structs to json
- maintain legacy swift json parsing code
When to choose
- you are maintaining an existing codebase that already uses Gloss
- you need migration helpers to move Gloss models to Codable
When to avoid
- you are starting a new Swift project - use Codable instead
- you need an actively maintained JSON library
- you need JSON parsing on non-Apple platforms
