Add a sample project that demonstrates integrating with a 3rd-party network library to send and receive OSC.

Ideal candidates:

This would be really valuable. Just reading the readme for Swift-NIO makes my head spin. It’s preventing me from even trying your library (which looks great!)

Agreed - I did spent a little time with Swift-NIO in effort to get a sample project put together for OSCKit, but NIO is pretty complex and I didn't successfully get it working in the time I spent.

I may do a Network.framework demo because I've been using that in a number of my own apps and it's easier for the less tech-savvy.

I added an example project using Network.framework in the /Examples folder.

On launch, it creates:

  • a server that listens for OSC messages on port 8000 and prints incoming messages to the console
  • a client that can send OSC messages to a hard-coded IP address and port (you can change this in ViewController.swift)
  • a window containing a button to send a test OSC message using the OSC client (message is hard-coded and editable in ViewController.swift)

I didn't bump the release yet on the repo so just download the /Examples folder using the ZIP file download.

I might add a bit of documentation in the README and bump the release in a bit.
