🎥  Demo

Testing

xcodebuild.nvim supports code coverage, test explorer, diagnostics, snapshot tests, Quick framework, and more!

Working With Code

Neovim can be easily integrated with SwiftLint, SwiftFormat, Copilot, and more. In the video, you can see basic navigation, diagnostics, formatting, linting, code completion, and of course, launching the app on a simulator.

Debugging

The plugin allows you to debug both on simulators and physical devices. You get access to all basic things like breakpoints, variables inspection, call stack, lldb, etc. You can even see app logs.

Previews

The plugin allows you to display previews for SwiftUI, UIKit, and AppKit views. The setup is quite easy, you just need to install snacks.nvim to enable image support and xcodebuild-nvim-preview package to add previews to your project. See Wiki for more details.
