Is there a reliable swift package for running a tcp connection from an ios app ?
2 projects | /r/SwiftUI | 16 Sep 2021

I managed to make it kind of work with CFStreamCreatePairWithSocketToHost but it seems to be deprecated. SwiftSocket looks to be a good solution too but at this point I'm not very sure what to do or what to use.
