Wow, I was at Apple back in the 2018 timeframe when Peter was first building this. He was hoping to make it open sourced even back then, 6ish years ago. Great to see that it finally made it.

I really wish Apple would learn to play nicer with the OSS community. I have yet to see them deciding to open-source something backfire on them monetarily or reputationally, and I've seen the act of them abruptly close-sourcing things sour community opinion (i.e. FoundationDB).

Hey, I recognize this name :D

Yeah, it's been a long time coming, and it feels great to finally get this out in open source.

FDB is open source too, BTW: https://github.com/apple/foundationdb
