iSwift

iSwift is a cool tool created by Apple that helps you work with the Swift programming language for both macOS and iOS apps. This programming language is designed to be simple and easy to use, making it a great choice for developers. Swift is definitely on its way to becoming the go-to option, and it might even take over Objective-C completely in the future. For now, both languages are still supported.

What Can iSwift Do?

So, what’s great about iSwift? Well, it’s a minimalist but powerful application for macOS that helps you convert your Objective-C project files into Swift code without much hassle. All you have to do is drag and drop your original file onto the iSwift app icon or copy-paste the source code right into the main window.

How Does It Work?

Once you do that, iSwift jumps in and automatically analyzes your Objective-C syntax. It identifies and transforms everything into valid Swift source code almost instantly! You can see the results right there in the editing area.

Check Your Code Easily

The main window of iSwift shows you both versions of your code side by side so you can double-check if everything converted correctly. Plus, it has syntax highlighting features to help spot errors easily!

Edit Your Code Right Away

If something needs fixing, no worries! With iSwift, you can start making corrections right away. The app even checks your syntax automatically and offers autocompletion support to speed things up.

Customize Your Experience

You can also tweak settings through the Preferences panel. If you'd rather control when conversions happen, just turn off the 'Live as-you-type conversion' feature and trigger it manually whenever you're ready.

The Benefits of Switching

Making the switch to Swift comes with its benefits, but adapting older projects can be tricky sometimes. Thankfully, iSwift makes this process super easy with its drag-and-drop feature along with handy editing tools for checking or modifying your source code manually.
