Hello TAPS!
This week we released Network.framework, a new set of transport APIs, as part
of the beta for iOS 12 and macOS Mojave.
This API provides support for connections and listeners using TCP, UDP, TLS,
and DTLS; connecting by name or service, with happy eyeballs support for
addresses, interfaces, and protocols (for proxies, etc). This provides our
basis for “post-sockets” API work. As we define as a working group more of the
full TAPS API vision for protocol agility, we'd like on add that support to
this framework.

If you are an iOS or macOS developer, please try out the APIs! Either way, we’d
love for everyone to take a read through the API and give feedback on how we
can continue to evolve things towards a post-sockets and fully TAPS model. Note
that on iOS and tvOS, this framework is currently using a user-space networking
stack instead of sockets when applicable.
Best,
Tommy
