Developer releases native SwiftUI candlestick chart library

A developer has released CandleKit, an open-source SwiftUI library for rendering candlestick charts natively in iOS apps. The project was motivated by frustration that existing charting options for financial and trading data typically rely on embedded WebViews rather than native components. Developers discussing it highlight the appeal of fully native rendering for performance and simpler integration in Swift projects, with the library being shared across iOS and open-source coding communities.
Why now: iOS developers frequently need charting for financial apps and are drawn to a native, open-source alternative to WebView-based solutions.
