This is version 0.87 of MKNetworkKit. Read the blog post for more. The latest code is still not fully testing on Mac, though iOS is complete. Caching responses and invalidation of cache is not implemented the right way for the Mac target.
MKNetworkKit is ready for production use on iOS apps. As on date, it's used by several thousands of apps including Digg
###Why MKNetworkKit?
- Single network queue for the whole app
- Auto queue sizing and auto network indicator support
- High performance background caching (based on HTTP 1.1 caching specs) built in
- You don't need a separate image cache library
- Background image decompression
- Performs exactly one operation for similar requests
- Background completion
- Local notification support for operations that failed in background
- cURL-able debug lines
- Frozen operations. Operations like "faving a tweet" or "marking as read" are frozen when network connectivity is not available and executed when online
These are just a few of most interesting features on MKNetworkKit.
###Installation
The preferred way of installation is via CocoaPods. Just add
pod 'MKNetworkKit'and run pod install. It will install the most recent version of MKNetworkKit.

###TODO
- Streaming post body test
- Twitter streams test
- multiple images upload test
- Hash implementation for MKNetworkOperation
- Batch network queue
- A rare crash in setCache method (Multiple issues on Github that I cannot reproduce)
- Frozen operations should report via NSNotifications
###Known Issues
- Frozen operations don't report progress/completion handlers back to the calling code. (Before 1.0)
