After a decade as a Java (and Kotlin) dev I recently got to work on an iOS app. The transition from Jetbrains products to Xcode has been painful, to say the least.

I tried appcode before it was retired, and it was a much better experience all around. I can't understand why Apple insists on maintaining this pile of crap instead of working with JB like Google.

I mean if they're using Xcode to maintain Xcode, then that's your answer.

I'm in the same boat, been working on Android apps personally and professionally for about 6 years and recently had to do some work for our iOS app and I've spent every minute wishing I could use a JetBrains product instead
