Developing apps in SwiftUI it’s extremely useful to have SwiftData, an ORM that can act like a system of records. For my own use case this is basically metadata for large scale datasets in Parquet or similar.
That said it’s still my most frequent cause of crashes, however I think mostly it’s just because this is simply a hard problem that SQLite just isn’t cut out for (although it did take Apple until macOS 27 to supply a codable decorator grrr).
Ideally databases could evolve to fit OR mapping more closely, which incidentally is what Arrow and Parquet have done to an extent.
