OperationQueue
It’s built on top of Grand Central Dispatch (GCD) and provides a higher-level abstraction for managing concurrent operations. It’s an abstract class and never used directly. We can make use of the system-defined BlockOperation subclass or by creating your own subclass and start an operation by adding it to an OperationQueue or …
Global Dispatch Queues
GCD provides a set of global dispatch queues that are managed by the system. These queues are categorised into different quality-of-service (QoS) classes, indicating their priority. Main Dispatch Queue: The Main Dispatch Queue is a special serial dispatch queue associated with the main thread of your application. It’s the primary …
