When I started working on my new app I just went with SwiftData. The more I read about it though, the less I want to keep it.
SQLiteData by @pointfreecoPoint-Free seems to be a pretty good alternative. I've been wanting to try GRDB for a while now anyway and having that great wrapper for it is nice.

@saschagordner Can highly recommend SQLiteData. It’s excellent with none of the drawbacks I encountered with SwiftData. @pointfreecoPoint-Free
