About Xcode 12

Xcode is an app-building software that helps businesses initiate, review, merge, and comment on pull requests and manage collaboration processes via integration with GitHub, GitLab, and BitBucket. The platform enables staff members to utilize the built-in code completion, editing, compilation, linking, and debugging tools.

Xcode's CarPlay simulator allows team members to gain control over screen resolutions, size, and variables input method to test CarPlay experiences across multiple car platforms. The quick compare tool allows employees to access the editor to create and view comparisons of multiple source code versions.

A must have for iOS development

Reviewed on 2023/09/20

Pros

It has a ton of useful features and is really nicely integrated with Swift as well as Git. The UI is pretty appealing and overall has friendly interface.

Cons

Sometimes it might take too much time to load and sometime the default window does not even pop up.

Best all in one programming tool

I like the debugging and inspection feature. It's the all-in-one complete app, game, and software development software for me. It's recommended for ios apps and games also recommended for any other software development.

Pros

I like the most about this software: ease of use and all-in-one tool feature. So I can do all programming-related work in my Xcode 12. So I don't have to use multiple tools to complete my tasks like app development, software development, and other stuff. Also, like the auto-suggestion tooltips feature. I like to use this software to develop enterprise applications, android, and ios apps and games.

Cons

If I have to build an ios app or game then I must have to use Xcode, I don't like this thing. It shouldn't be bound.

Overall it's good tool and updated feature compare to previous XCode. The only conern is the tool size and the memory it takes to run.

Pros

Xcode is good to develop iOS apps. New Xcode features Swift UI is much easier to use for creating UI for iOS apps. The code completion suggestion is very powerful

Cons

when you start opening multiple tabs, it will hit your computer memory very hard and you will face system crash or hang several times.

Overall was an awesome experience but wasn't for us in the end as it was too hard to implement in-app purchasing and subscriptions to our app. Also was very tedious having to resubmit the app to be published every time we made small changes.

Pros

Xcode offered a great amount of endless design options. Loved the way you can do a simulation of your app in a sandbox environment on different Apple devices from iPad Air to the latest iPhone or Apple Watch. Great library for filing media items too.

Cons

You can build any app you are after, given that you either know Swift (coding language) back to front or have plenty of time to research how to build your app. Cons are that it is very code intensive and difficult to wrap your head around some trickier concepts to bring them to life. Another con is the difficulty with publishing apps not always displaying why they got rejected from the app store and also adding in-app purchase functionality is difficult.
