MGTwitterEngine is an Objective-C/Cocoa library that adds Twitter integration to Mac OS X and iPhone apps via the Twitter REST API. It provides delegate-based callbacks for statuses, direct messages, and user info, with optional LibXML parsing.
Use cases
- post tweets from a mac app
- fetch twitter timelines in an iphone app
- integrate twitter into a cocoa application
- send direct messages via twitter api from objective-c
- parse twitter api xml responses on ios
When to choose
- you maintain a legacy Objective-C app targeting old iOS/macOS SDKs that already uses this engine
When to avoid
- starting any new project - Twitter API v1 and basic auth are long dead
- you need OAuth or current Twitter/X API features
- you need a maintained or supported library
