A command-line tool to generate cross-platform Swift framework projects with support for major dependency managers.
SwiftPlate is a command-line tool that generates cross-platform Swift framework projects with built-in support for major dependency managers like CocoaPods, Carthage, and Swift Package Manager. It automates the initial project setup, creating Xcode projects for iOS, macOS, watchOS, tvOS, and Linux in seconds.
Swift developers and teams who frequently create new framework projects and want to avoid manual configuration for different platforms and package managers.
It saves time by eliminating repetitive setup, ensures consistent project structures, and supports automation through command-line arguments for CI/CD workflows.
Easily generate cross platform Swift framework projects from the command line
Open-Awesome is built by the community, for the community. Submit a project, suggest an awesome list, or help improve the catalog on GitHub.
Generates projects for iOS, macOS, watchOS, tvOS, and Linux in seconds, eliminating repetitive manual setup for each platform as highlighted in the README.
Pre-configures CocoaPods, Carthage, and Swift Package Manager simultaneously, saving time on dependency management configuration from the start.
Offers a step-by-step guide for user input and supports command-line arguments (e.g., --destination, --project) for automation in CI/CD pipelines, as documented in the README.
Allows using custom repositories via the --repo argument, enabling teams to standardize and adapt project structures to their specific needs.
Primarily designed for Swift frameworks, so it's not suitable for creating full applications with UI components, which limits its utility for app developers.
Relies on built-in or custom templates that may become outdated with Swift or Xcode updates, requiring manual maintenance to ensure compatibility.
Lacks a graphical user interface, which can be less accessible for developers who prefer visual tools for project setup and configuration.
