    At the moment I would recommend gRPC for Swift and Rust, even though in general gRPC drives me insane, it is currently the most convenient choice. Use tonic for the Rust server-side, and grpc-swift for the client-side. I've had quite a lot of success with this in the past.

    Xcode is an angry child when it comes to external dependencies, so I made cargo-cocoapods to make generating a cocoapod out of a Rust crate simple. This will generate a podspec, build all the required targets for iOS and/or macOS, then allow you to bundle the output into a valid zip file that a Cocoapods Podfile can consume.

What are some alternatives?
