Oh, if nominating same (not previously accepted) package multiple times is fine, I'll add my +1 to this

Packages from previous months that were not selected carry over, at least while we are struggling for nominations, so Benchmark is still in the list 👍

Consider it double-nominated! 😂

Actually, when I came to update the winners for this month, I saw that it already won and was on the Community Showcase page for January 🫣

 ![Screenshot 2024-02-09 at 10.36.36@2x](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/swift/original/3X/b/0/b0434ff8c608138b71e796cb951177049c2f820e.png)

It's excluded from future months because of that. We are working on adding a historical record of all featured packages, as this will be more likely to happen as we go forward.

I'll bite...

Lottie

> **[Lottie – Swift Package Index](https://swiftpackageindex.com/airbnb/lottie-ios)**
>
> Lottie by Airbnb on the Swift Package Index – An iOS library to natively render After Effects vector animations

Makes adding animations to your UI a cinch. Turn any aftereffects file into an animated view, or download one from [lottiefiles.com](http://lottiefiles.com)

Nuke

> **[Nuke – Swift Package Index](https://swiftpackageindex.com/kean/Nuke)**
>
> Nuke by Alex Grebenyuk on the Swift Package Index – Image loading system

You shouldn't be embarrassed. We all have to do it at some time. That's right, asynchronously download, cache, and present images. Nuke improves on AsyncImage, mainly in that you don't have to worry about setting up your own caching. It can also adapt images, reducing size for example.

Godot game engine project to SwiftUI Xcode app for visionOS. Timely.  
Easy, fast, much needed free tool to develop in 3D for Apple Vision Pro.  
See also GodotVisionExample repo which uses this package.

I'd like to nominate Fork which allows for parallelizing multiple async functions. I was going to attempt to explain what Fork is, but Zach did a great job on the readme so below is a snippet of that, and said readme also does a great job explaing use cases.

> Fork is a Swift library that allows for parallelizing multiple async functions. It provides a Fork struct that takes a single input and splits it into two separate async functions that return different outputs. The two functions can then be merged into one which returns a single output.

If you are going to mention a Godot project, might as well mention [SwiftGodot – Swift Package Index](https://swiftpackageindex.com/migueldeicaza/SwiftGodot) the Swift Godot bindings. which makes all other Swift Godot projects possible.

You can definitely be forgiven for missing it, but [SwiftGodot was featured in the very first month](https://github.com/apple/swift-org-website/blob/7e6537e16ee77c80e28cbc606922cb40ae0e3f1a/_data/packages/showcase-history.yml#L179) of this page being live.

The [archive/history section is currently in PR](https://github.com/apple/swift-org-website/pull/561), which will help with this!

Almost forgot to add mine! I'm sending the nominations to the SWWG in an hour or so, so please do feel free to add any final ones!

–-

**Package:** [Time](https://swiftpackageindex.com/davedelong/time)  
**Reason for nomination:** The culmination of six years of work from Dave is certainly worth a nomination! None of us enjoy time and date calculations, and if the beta versions of this package were not already, I predict the 1.x release will become an important part of the package ecosystem.

**Package:** [Threadcrumb](https://swiftpackageindex.com/naftaly/Threadcrumb)  
**Reason for nomination:** I thought this was a clever debugging technique to show information in thread backtracces. It's a clever idea and worth showcasing in my opinion!

Ah, I'm sorry about that!

We now have a history of the _chosen_ packages [here](https://www.swift.org/packages/showcase.html#archive), but this thread serves as the only archive of nominations.

I should have looked more carefully, sorry! If it gets picked, I'll link to both forum posts.
