Accio
A SwiftPM-driven dependency manager for iOS/tvOS/watchOS/macOS projects, bridging the gap until Xcode's native SwiftPM support.
What is Accio?
Accio is a dependency manager for iOS, tvOS, watchOS, and macOS projects that uses Swift Package Manager (SwiftPM) as its foundation. It solves the problem of managing third-party libraries more efficiently than Carthage by offering features like selective scheme building, automated project integration, and shared caching. It was created to bridge the gap until Xcode natively supported SwiftPM for Apple platform development.
Swift developers working on iOS, tvOS, watchOS, or macOS projects who prefer Carthage's non-intrusive approach but want improved build performance and easier dependency management.
Developers choose Accio over Carthage because it automates tedious tasks like framework linking, reduces build times through caching, and aligns with SwiftPM's manifest format for future-proofing. Its shared cache feature is particularly valuable for teams looking to minimize redundant builds.
