Rearrange is a collection of utilities for making it easier to work with NSRange, IndexSet, and String.Index.
If you need to work with NSTextRange/UITextRange or just TextKit in general, check out Glyph.

]RangeMutation
This is a struct that encapsulates a single change to an NSRange. It's useful for serializing, queuing, or otherwise storing changes and applying them.
You can also use this class to tranform locations, NSRange, or even an IndexSet. This is handy for updating values as text is changed. This might seem easy, but there are a large number of edge cases that RangeMutation handles, including mutations that invalidate (for example completely delete) a range.

subscript(range: NSRange) -> Substring?I would love to hear from you! Issues or pull requests work great. Both a Matrix space and Discord are available for live help, but I have a strong bias towards answering in the form of documentation. You can also find me on mastodon.
I prefer collaboration, and would love to find ways to work together if you have a similar project.
I prefer indentation with tabs for improved accessibility. But, I'd rather you use the system you want and make a PR than hesitate because of whitespace.
