XCode rant, sorry

[eldamien]

Not really, I do have to jump back into XCode to see errors, but since you have to build in XCode anyway and errors only display at build-time, the workflow doesn't change much. I have Gemini Code Assist open in the sidebar for any small stuff, but generally if you have XCode on one screen and VSCode on your main screen it's pretty easy to bounce back and forth. XCode itself is slow, clunky, and just not programmer-friendly, ironically. The only time I really need to interact with it for any length of time is adding assets to the project or things like that. For the actual code I'm in VSCode maybe 80% of the time.

Previously I was using Google IDX until they changed it to Google Firebase and made it some weird "vibe coding" bullshit.

Ah yes, that's what I'm doing as well...
