Macaw is a Swift vector graphics library for iOS with SVG support, animations, and transitions. It is now deprecated; the maintainers recommend SwiftUI or SVGView instead.
Use cases
- render svg images in an ios app
- draw vector graphics with swift
- animate vector shapes on ios
- build custom ui transitions in swift
- parse and display svg files on ios
When to choose
- you maintain an existing Macaw-based iOS codebase
- you need a legacy Swift vector graphics library with SVG support on older toolchains
When to avoid
- you are starting a new iOS project - use SwiftUI or SVGView instead
- you need ongoing bug fixes or new features
- you target the latest Xcode versions and want guaranteed compatibility
