## What it is
SwiftValidator is a rule-based validation library for Swift, primarily used to validate UITextField inputs in iOS apps. It evaluates registered fields against a sequence of rules (required, email, length, confirmation, regex) and reports validation errors, optionally via error labels.

## Use cases
- validate form inputs in an iOS app
- check email and required fields in Swift
- add rule-based text field validation to UIKit forms
- confirm password and email fields match in Swift
- show inline error labels for invalid form fields
- validate zip codes and phone numbers with regex rules

## When to choose
- you are building an iOS/UIKit app in Swift and need declarative text field validation
- you want built-in rules like required, email, min length, and confirmation with custom error messages

## When to avoid
- you are building for SwiftUI or non-Apple platforms
- you need a library with recent releases or active maintenance
- you need validation beyond UITextField-centric form input

## Facets
