Become a sponsor to Lalana Chamika
Hi, I’m Lalana, an iOS developer with about five years of experience, based in Canada
I build CandleKit, an open-source Swift package for interactive candlestick charts that feel like a native iOS control, not a web chart in a wrapper. It’s MIT-licensed and free to use.
What’s in it today
- Momentum scrolling, pinch zoom, a long-press crosshair, live updates and infinite history
- Indicators, drawing tools, saved layouts and price alerts
- Multi-symbol comparison, replay mode and trading-session shading
- Share-as-image, a home-screen widget, Live Activity and Dynamic Island sparklines, and an App Intents sample
- A Foundation-only core you can test on Linux and use on watchOS
Why sponsor
CandleKit is maintained in my spare time. Sponsorship goes toward device testing, profiling and snapshot tests, which are the parts that most need real hardware time. It also goes toward the open roadmap and the docs and demo app, and toward keeping issues and pull requests answered.
Where it stands: it’s young. Parts of the SwiftUI layer haven’t been profiled on a device yet, and the roadmap is public, so you can see what’s done and what isn’t. If you use it in a trading, portfolio or analytics app, sponsoring helps keep it dependable.
Using it and filing issues helps just as much. Thank you for looking.
