![]() UPDATE: In Xcode, you first have to double click on a commit or click on the file listed in the right explorer for a commit to open the according view, so it is not as immediate as in SmartGit where you can keep the according view open, but also very good.) ![]() It would seem like for app development most people either use Xcode (unlikely) or just write all their apps in cross platform frameworks. We believe that the time has come to sunset the product and focus our efforts in other directions. While we’ve had some growth in terms of adoption, we didn’t reach the market share we had hoped for. I suppose I wouldn't like writing code either if I had to work with Apple's painfully object oriented apis, it doesn't even feel like Swift, just objective-c with pretty syntax. However it seems like most people prefer the features and don't like writing as much, so I guess it is indeed sad that there's less choice now. Everything is enabled by default and the editor looks like a, just gets in the way of writing. I have an unnecessarily long settings.json file just to get VSCode to stop bothering me with too many features. Other editors like VSCode and most other IDEs are really bad at this. These are all just tools, the important part is the code. Using git from the terminal is the most reliable anyway. There isn't a 100 buttons and flashing icons to distract you, just the code, syntax highlighting and a lot of keyboard shortcuts errors even fade out nicely when you start typing. Personally I use Xcode (not even for app development) because it's simple. Unfortunately I might not have a choice which is sad. What I am really looking for is an editor which is helpful in writing code, Xcode aint it. I dont have a need for visual programming so all the nib/xib and xml based Xcode features are fluff I dont need. Being able to order the file structure and being able to create scopes to filter the project is fantastic for very large projects. ![]() VS Code is probably be able to fill the some blanks here.
