Wouldn't Objective-C's "library management" be the same as C's? Wouldn't you include the source files in your project, add the header files to the proper path somewhere and be done with it? People developing software in C and C++ have been doing this for decades without much of a problem, I can't understand how all of a sudden this is a "dependency nightmare".
Recommending to roll your own solution for every new problem goes directly against the last 20 years of evolution in the software development industry. It's like the other conclusion some iOS developers seem to arrive to: "you should debug by logging because XCode's debugger sucks". Another 20 year regression.
I'm just confused. Is XCode singlehandedly messing up the minds of a whole generation of developers?
EDIT: removed profanity.
