GRDB Stories

The little things that make the SQLite library GRDB.swift different.

One of the most useful tools of Core Data is the NSFetchedResultsController. Fetched results controllers feed table views with the results of a query, and also monitor the database: whenever the database is modified, the controller’s delegate can smoothly animate the changes by inserting, removing, and updating table view rows.

GRDB has its own ValueObservation that provides the same services. You can try it in the demo applications.
