In plain words

Cassowary is a Swift implementation of the Cassowary linear constraint solving algorithm. It's designed for developers building user interfaces or applications that need to automatically calculate layout constraints. The solver handles variable relationships and constraints to produce optimal solutions, making it useful for creating flexible, responsive designs without manual calculation. Available as open source on GitHub.

SwiftAI gives you: - A single, model-agnostic API - An agent/tool loop - Strongly-typed structured outputs - Optional chat state Backstory: We started experimenting with Apple’s local models because they’re free (no API calls), private, and work offline. The problem: not all devices support them (older iPhones, Apple Intelligence disabled, low battery, etc.). That…
