In my 15+ years of experience, Xcode remains my most-used tool—because nothing beats the joy of crafting iOS apps. Lately, I've been diving into mental health and wellness apps, and Xcode’s built-in shortcuts and documentation have been incredible time-savers. It’s one of the most compact and well-integrated IDEs out there. Sure, it still lags in some areas, but it’s miles ahead of many other IDEs.

A great development tool for Apple applications. It has a convenient code editor, debugger, and interface designer. Integration with Swift makes it easier to create applications for iOS, macOS, watchOS, and tvOS

Xcode is an essential app for developers working within the Apple ecosystem. However, Xcode’s unique indexing and file management system rely not only on the folder data itself but also on accumulating data within the Xcode app’s internal storage. While this approach can provide convenience for developers, it often leads to discomfort when it comes to the amount of system storage consumed by this data.

Xcode is the backbone of Dock's development. Its powerful integrated development environment made it possible to build a seamless macOS app with robust performance and native design. The intuitive interface and comprehensive tools were crucial in bringing Dock from concept to reality.

I'm using it for IOS development and I'm happy with most of the features, but I wish it was more friendly (what the hell do you want me to do with the preferences?) Also, I can't ignore the risk of bugs in every new version. It's very brave of your team to be the first to release a version.
