    > I don't think I could in good conscience recommend your approach as a general practice.

    I can live with that, but ... (There's always a "but")

    I am not happy at all, with the general industry practice of writing every project to be something that can be understood by inexperienced, undisciplined coders.

    Every language and programming methodology has an "advanced" type of thing, requiring people to have experience and/or book-larnin'.

    I write Swift at a fairly advanced level. I am not at the level of some heavy-duty advanced Swift people, but I am pretty "idiomatic," in my approach. It is not "rewritten TypeScript," like so much code out there.

    My code is very well-documented, and I hold myself to standards of Quality that most folks in the industry consider to be obsessive to the point of insanity. My testing code usually dwarfs my implementation code, and my documentation is, let's say ... complete. You can see what I mean in my latest module[0].

    I won't write junk, so that someone used to junk, can comprehend it. If people aren't willing to learn enough to understand my middle-of-the-road semi-advanced Swift, then I can't help them. Swift is an awesome language. I feel that we are doing ourselves a disservice, if we do not explore it.

    I write for myself. I write code and documentation that I want to use (and I use it). I really don't care, whether or not someone else "approves" of it. I am not relying on others to review, maintain, or patch my code.

    When I do use other people's code, I vet it fairly carefully. Including a dependency is a really serious matter. I'm handing full control of my execution context to code that someone else wrote. I'd damn well better take that Responsibility seriously.

    You should be using Keychain for all secrets. You can specify an "access group" that can be used across processes. The API sucks so I use the keychain-swift wrapper.

    The only one of those that I didn't write, was KeychainSwift[0]. It makes dealing with the Keychain easy, and is a very simple dependency. If it went off the rails, I'd write something like it, myself.

    All the others, are in my own repos, as top-shelf-quality open-source modules.
