A small Swift library providing a modern, closure-based API over NSTimer for scheduling delays and repeating timers. It adds intuitive duration helpers like 5.seconds and simple Timer.every/Timer.after calls.

Use cases

  • schedule a repeating timer with a closure in swift
  • run code after a delay on ios
  • replace verbose nstimer selector syntax
  • create readable time intervals like 2.5.seconds in swift
  • invalidate a repeating timer from inside its callback

When to choose

  • you want concise, swifty timer syntax on iOS/macOS/watchOS/tvOS
  • you prefer closures over target-selector NSTimer APIs
  • you need a tiny dependency you can also just copy into your project

When to avoid

  • you need advanced timer features like run-loop–independent scheduling or tolerance controls
  • you're targeting modern Swift concurrency and prefer async/await-based timers
  • the project appears minimally maintained and may lag newer Swift versions
