Actually, I make a point in my iOS projects to avoid third party libraries wherever possible. The first-party SDK is good enough that the dependency cost of libraries like Alamofire is usually not worth it.
I had to do some Android development not too long ago, and I felt like I had entered some crazy la-la land until I found a bunch of third party infrastructure like Kotlin, RXJava and a pile of libraries to make life bearable.
