Xtool emerges as a cross-platform Xcode replacement
Original: xtool-org/xtool
An open-source project called Xtool is drawing attention for letting developers build and deploy iOS apps using SwiftPM on Linux, Windows and macOS, without Apple's Xcode. The Swift-based tool positions itself as a cross-platform alternative to Apple's development environment, a long-standing pain point for iOS developers working outside the Mac ecosystem. Reaction so far is largely curiosity and interest from developers eager for freedom from Apple's tooling.
Why now: Developers are excited by the prospect of building and deploying iOS apps without a Mac or Xcode.
