AppCode 2021.1

Swift Package Manager

• Standalone Projects - Added support for pure SPM projects. AppCode now resolves all Objective-C entities in Swift packages. Local SPM packages are now correctly processed.

Performance

• Decreased the time it takes to open large projects once the initial indexing and caching are finished.

Kotlin/Native Plugin

• Cross-resolve from Objective-C/Swift to Kotlin now works automatically and does not require rebuilding the project.

Swift on Microsoft Windows in CLion

• The Swift plugin for CLion now works with the Swift toolchain on Windows.

Trusted Projects

• Added the concept of trusted projects to AppCode to mitigate the risks associated with opening projects from unknown and untrusted sources.

Version Control

• Profiles for Pre-commit Inspections - AppCode can inspect your code before you commit it to help you make sure there are no bugs. You can choose a code inspection profile before committing changes to VCS.
• Git Commit Templates - You can now create a custom commit message template in Git and AppCode will display this text as an initial commit message.
• Save to Shelf - A new Save to Shelf action allows you to copy your changes to the Shelf while keeping them in the local changes.

Other

• Added the ability to fine-tune the weight of your main and bold font styles using the new typography settings.
• Maximize tabs in the split view - Whenever several tabs that split the editor vertically are open, you can double-click either of them to maximize the editor window for that specific tab. To bring the window back to its original size, simply double-click it again.
