1. Precise C-style Function Mappings

Until today, we have been using only a subset of Objective-C for Swift function mappings (which have been imported from “apinotes” - annotation files used by Apple Swift sources). Now, we are using very precise function mappings based on Apple SourceKit.

We have also updated Objective-C to Swift method, enum and type mappings based on Swift 5.1 binaries.

2. Performance and Stability Improvements for Swiftify Apps

We have listened to your feedback and reorganized our apps infrastructure so that it won't use your Mac's resources unless you are using our apps. We now:

Ensure that no background services are running after all Swiftify apps are closed
Decreased memory consumption and energy usage
