Our Experience Using CoreData in Projects

We actively used CoreData in various projects and were able to evaluate all its advantages and disadvantages. With CoreData, we implemented complex data queries, which significantly simplified the data management process of our project. In our experience, we noted that CoreData is especially useful in projects with a large volume of data, where high performance and effective data management are required.

Based on our experience, we believe that CoreData is a powerful and flexible tool that can significantly facilitate data management in the project. However, it is worth remembering that for simple projects, there might be lighter and more suitable tools.
