"Not a proficient coder? New to coding but still want to build an app? Xcode is your answer!"
What do you like best about Xcode?

A new graduate of a 4-month, intensive coding boot camp, I knew HTML and Java (as a beginner). But I was possessed with an idea of an app I just HAD to build somehow. My plan was to get a front-end job and learn back-end skills on the job. At a meetup, a guy said,"You don't have to go back to school or to work to gain the skills to build an app." He said all that I needed to do was download Xcode and get to building. I did. I already knew how I wanted the app to operate for the user. Since the idea come from my previous career as a Family Psychologist, the actual information to build the app upon was in my brain and needed no research. Doing the "wire frame" was a cinch. It took very little time after that to create my app. It's called "Simple As 123" and the application is soon to be sent to Apple for acceptance! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Xcode?

Building the "bells and whistles" to create an interesting UX and UI suitable for Apple's requirements for acceptance took some mentoring from a fellow meetup colleague. But that made the journey even more interesting and fun! It was as instructional as learning about Hex color codes and such, and because of this extension of the journey in building my app, I learned so much more. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Xcode is flexible, but needs user qualty improvement."
What do you like best about Xcode?

I like the range of features that I can use when I am developing iOS applications. Xcode makes it easy to identify what I need to do and where I need to do it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Xcode?

I dislike how some of the features or updates take too long to load, either for a specific project or the IDE as a whole. I think the IDE would benefit if it optimizes the speed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Xcode?

The only demerit would be the need to use a rather expensive Mac over an average PC to run the software to its full potential. Everyone won't have access to expensive Macs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
