This article is written by Pedro Piñera Buendia, Software Engineer @ Tuist

Headline: The transition to Codemagic made our CI builds faster and more reliable and positively impacted the experience of contributors contributing to our open-source project, Tuist.

Thanks to Codemagic’s support, we can bring new free goods to the Swift community and the ecosystem of app developers.

Helping scale Xcode development

Since the introduction of the iOS platform, the Apple ecosystem has experienced an explosion of new platforms, capabilities, and programming languages like Swift that Xcode had to keep up with to support developers in their journey of making apps. While Xcode and Xcode projects provide all the tools necessary to build, test, analyze, and release apps, they still need to support developers who use them to develop apps at scale. Organizations often experience slow and unreliable incremental builds, brittle modular projects that are hard to reason about, and a lack of data and flexibility to make informed decisions about the project’s future to ensure it remains healthy and fosters a healthy development environment.
