I have an alternative implementation of a URI (a superset of URL). It is
quite ready to use but still requires some polishing and adding of
additional specific URI schemes.
It is designed primarily for server side usage but can be useful on a
client too. The main goals of the design is correctness (according to
RFC3986 and RFC7230) and efficiency.

You can take a look at it here: https://github.com/my-mail-ru/swift-URI
