All I want this WWDC is an Apple sponsored Swift language server built on top of SourceKit. I cannot stand XCode, it’s a constant source of frustration.

- ta547487388 8y agoAs someone that had mostly worked in Eclipse with a smattering of CodeWarrior/NetBeans/IntelliJ/Visual Studio, having to work on an iOS project using Swift in XCode was a big surprise to me. Just a terrible, terrible IDE. Even the default font felt wrong (presumably I could change that). I grew used to it crashing constantly, locking up, going off into the weeds when it felt like it. I feel like Microsoft made a huge mistake in gating their IDE behind a big $$ cost back in the day (in so far as getting fresh new developers on board), I feel like Apple might be making the same mistake with XCode and their lack of attention to it.
