About:
Vapor is the official command-line interface for the Vapor server-side Swift web framework. It streamlines the creation, management, and deployment of Vapor-based applications. This tool provides essential commands for scaffolding new projects and managing development environments.
Key Features:
  • Project scaffolding and template generation
  • Integrated development server management
  • Database migration and model generation
  • Build system and dependency management
Use Cases:
  • Creating new server-side Swift web applications from scratch
  • Managing database schemas and migrations for Vapor projects
  • Running local development servers with hot-reloading capabilities
Alternatives:
  • swift-package-manager – Vapor is a specialized framework CLI, while SwiftPM is the general-purpose Swift package manager
  • Express.js (npm) – Node.js alternative; Vapor provides type-safe Swift syntax vs JavaScript's dynamic nature
