Apple needs a better coding harness than Xcode
2 threads
Since when did we stop saying “IDE” and start saying “code harness”?
Since we stopped writing code and started writing prompts instead :)
Buy vs Build? Buy. They need this yesterday. Xcode has gotten so bad. It's not even funny anymore.
Instructions unclear, they're building a cloud-based CI/CD SaaS on top of it instead: https://developer.apple.com/xcode-cloud/
It hurts my eyes looking at this haha .. but that's different than the actual harness as we know it tho! Given their ecosystem, they'll always control the CI/CD part of it, which is fine. It's just painful to use XCode to get anything done anymore.
The future of Apple clearly is "subscriptions".
