Swift AI is a high-performance deep learning library written entirely in Swift, offering a flexible fully-connected neural network optimized for Apple hardware. It supports iOS and macOS via Apple's Accelerate framework, with example projects for handwriting and digit recognition.

Use cases

• train a neural network in Swift on macOS
• recognize handwritten digits on iOS
• build deep learning apps for Apple platforms
• run handwriting recognition with a pre-trained model
• do machine learning natively in Swift

When to choose

• you are building Swift apps on iOS or macOS and want a native neural network library
• you want lightweight, Apple-hardware-optimized fully-connected networks
• you need simple handwriting or digit recognition examples to learn from

When to avoid

• you need CNNs, RNNs, or modern deep learning architectures - they are unimplemented
• you need cross-platform support beyond Apple platforms
• you need an actively maintained library - the last release was in 2017
• you are doing production ML - prefer Core ML or MLX
