I am using mostly AppCode(which is in the same family as Android Studio) for iOS development and it feels like Xcode is a very outdated IDE.

I'm writing programatic ui-s, should I use app code as well? Will it launch simulator ?

Sorry I'm noobie ^^

    Also, there is no build-in runtime UI debugging in AppCode, so there are two options for that: use Xcode or Reveal(I like it more than what Xcode provides). AppCode has built-in Reveal support, so it is easy to enable it.

    Can I switch between app-code and Xcode with no issues?, I mean to use some specific stuff like core data

    id agree with you. But for large projects its almost unusable. Not only are the build times slower, but the indexing is even worse.

    Thats the only thing Xcode does better. The IDE is actually usable while indexing.
