alt Hacker NewsThere was a time I was interested in building for MacOS. Installing, opening and trying to use Xcode killed that pretty quick. I've never seen an IDE this behind in terms of usability from the competition.

As someone who has to use xcode from time to time to maintain a number of apps for work. It is my absolute least favourite IDE. Its such a bad experience.
I prefer writing in vscode instead and only using xcode to compile and debug.

Same experience. The 2009 version of Eclipse was more stable than modern XCode. And that’s saying something.

This is why people hate porting to Mac. Because at some point they need XCode and XCode is horrible.
