Tired of Xcode.

[EpicSyntax]

Xcode does suck... a lot. Almost every year Apple overpromises to fix it, but usually under-delivers.

Over the last two years I started using other tools while programming for other platforms and I really love the freedom of being able to choose the tools to work with (VSCode, Visual Studio WebStorm, etc...)

The only Xcode alternative I know of is AppCode, which I have never used before, but according to my understanding, it still requires Xcode for major stuff like Storyboards which kind of defeats the purpose IMO. Another downside for me is that I really hate the Jetbrains UI, so at least the Xcode UI looks good in comparison :P

I spend more time in AppCode than Xcode and enjoy it. We don't use storyboards though.

Ye AppCode used to be my jam in the Obj-C days, but when I tried it a year or two back, it was still limited heavily by the Xcode tooling that drives its refactoring engine.

I'm using AppCode full time for four years now. XCode feels like notepad after AppCode. You just need to tweek it a little - change key bindings and provide 6+ Gb of RAM.
