Developers write Swift and SwiftUI code with live previews, run apps in simulators, debug and profile them, and send builds to TestFlight and the App Store. Xcode Cloud adds hosted builds and tests.
Its intelligence features include a predictive code completion model that runs on the Mac and a coding assistant that can explain code, write fixes and generate tests. You can sign in to ChatGPT or Claude, or plug in other providers and local models with your own keys.
