  • Vapor

    💧 A server-side Swift HTTP web framework.

    • The Swift/Vapor project is a relatively easy way to do it.

  • GCDWebServer

    Discontinued The #1 HTTP server for iOS, macOS & tvOS (also includes web based uploader & WebDAV server)

    • I use https://github.com/swisspol/GCDWebServer but there are many webservers you can use. You can even use the Apache that is part of the standard MacOS distribution, where you write a standard CGI to make the Mac do things. Python also includes a standard webserver.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
