## What it is
A Swift caching library for iOS, tvOS, and macOS that provides memory, disk, and hybrid storage built on Codable serialization. It offers sync and async APIs, expiry handling, and thread-safe composable storage.

## Use cases
- cache objects to disk and memory in an iOS app
- store Codable structs with expiry dates in Swift
- add a hybrid memory and disk cache to an app
- cache API JSON responses on iOS
- clean up expired cached objects automatically
- thread-safe caching from multiple queues in Swift

## When to choose
- you need a focused, well-tested caching layer for Apple platforms
- you want Codable-based persistence with configurable expiry
- you need both memory and disk storage behind one API

## When to avoid
- you need caching for non-Apple platforms or web backends
- you want an image-loading library with built-in networking
- you need distributed or shared cache across devices

## Facets
