About:
Core Data Editor is a specialized macOS utility for inspecting and editing SQLite-based Core Data stores. It provides a user-friendly interface to view, modify, and manage data without needing to run the full application. This tool is invaluable for developers debugging local data persistence in iOS and macOS apps.
Key Features:
  • Visual browsing of Core Data entities and attributes
  • Direct editing of record values within a table view
  • Support for both SQLite and binary Core Data store formats
  • Ability to add, delete, and duplicate records
Use Cases:
  • Debugging data persistence issues during app development
  • Seeding initial data for testing purposes
  • Inspecting app state stored in Core Data on a simulator or device
Alternatives:
  • Base – A more general-purpose SQLite browser, whereas Core Data Editor is specifically designed for the Core Data stack and object models.
  • Xcode's built-in Core Data debugger – Integrated into Xcode but often less flexible for complex data manipulation or for working with exported app data files.
