Use the swift-nio tag for questions related to the Apple Swift NIO (non-blocking I/O) framework.
Swift NIO is a Swift framework released by Apple in March 2018. Think of it as a Netty port to the Swift programming language.
It can be used to write high performance protocol servers. For example HTTP endpoints, or any other kind of Internet protocol server, or client for that matter.
What Apple says:
SwiftNIO is a cross-platform asynchronous event-driven network application framework for rapid development of maintainable high performance protocol servers & clients.
It's like Netty, but written for Swift.
