Notes
Cloud sync: CloudKit-backed sync via ModelConfiguration.CloudKitDatabase.
Object / document store: Schema-managed object persistence; SwiftData model store on top of SQLite. Floors: iOS 17 / macOS 14.
In-memory database: In-memory container via ModelConfiguration(isStoredInMemoryOnly:).
Schema migrations: Versioned schemas with SchemaMigrationPlan / MigrationStage.
Reactive queries / change tracking: Change tracking via SwiftData history API; live UI updates flow through @Query/Observable rather than a dedicated observer type.
Type-safe queries: Type-safe fetches via FetchDescriptor + #Predicate macros.
