Since version 3 AppCode includes an awesome feature - multiple cursors and selections, that allows you to do many deals at a time increasing your productivity! Let’s see how you can use it and when it’s a good case for this feature. Multiple selections allow you to put a cursor in multiple locations in your file and edit them at once. This feature works with all languages supported by AppCode such as Objective-C, C, C++, HTML, JavaScript, CSS and more. (more…)

AppCode offers a wide variety of code refactorings, which track down and correct the affected code references automatically. Some of them are widely known and often used, others are just missed. Move refactoring is present in AppCode since 2.1 version, but have you ever used it? Let’s take a closer look at it. Generally speaking, there’s nothing special about Move refactoring, but in complex projects with a large code base, it really saves your time when, for example, you move a method to a new place that turns out to be a lot harder than you thought it would be. The Move refactoring allows

This guest blog post is from Julian Król, iOS developer at Trifork. He has been developing iOS apps for more than two years and continues to find it very exciting. In his free time he enjoys travelling and training martial arts. You can find him on LinkedIn. In this blog post I would like to mention a few features (from the very long list) that makes AppCode very valuable IDE for an iOS developer. Some of those features are in the AppCode for quite a long time but someone may missed them or be unaware of them. The functionalities I’m describing below are not the most popular and famous fea

Hello everyone, We've announced 3.0.3 update recently. Unfortunately a critical bug in formatting was there - thanks to our user who mentioned and reported the problem.

Several crucial problems were addressed in this build: OC-9910 - Incorrect indentation of method's block arguments; OC-10033 - Merge Tool unable to merge resolving conflicts; OC-9752 - Line and block comments always place comment at first column regardless the settings. Also some use cases were improved for the new code inspection which offers to switch to modern literal syntax (#ifdef/#if sections handling, cases with specific symbols, cases that should consider type casts OC-10314, OC-10318). The full list of changes

Hi everyone, In this update we’ve improved compatibility with the latest Xcode 6 beta releases (including beta 2 and beta 3) and iOS 8 and fixed a couple of problems.

The recording of our June 12th webinar, Embracing AppCode 3, is now available on JetBrainsTV YouTube channel. In this webinar, Rafał Legiędź shows some “standard” magic like code assistance, code generation and refactoring features, goes through debugging and CocoaPods support, and even gives a small demo of Swift coding in AppCode. Below are some questions from our webinar answered by Rafał and Anastasia. Q: Does AppCode have Interface Builder? Does it support storyboard format? A: Yes, since 3.0 version AppCode includes integrated UI Designer that provides all the essential UI

One of the most notable features of AppCode is code analysis, which helps keep your code accurate and clean. The flexible mechanism of resolving problems works on the fly and allows you to easily improve code structure, detect unreachable and redundant code, conform to numerous guidelines and standards, detect performance issues, and much more. AppCode not only highlights code issues in the editor, but also suggests intelligent quick-fixes and adds useful indicators to the right-hand gutter which let you instantly see the status of the file and navigate around the detected issues: AppCod

Hello everyone, Big day today as we've just released AppCode 3.0, your new favorite IDE for iOS/OS X development! We focused on making v3.0 a more complete and productive development experience for you. We listened to your feedback and introduced the top-voted feature: integrated UI Designer, as well as improvements in target management, code generation actions for TDD, look&feel changes, and a plugin for a fantastic iOS debugging tool from Itty Bitty Apps called Reveal. As a result, less switching between IDEs means more productive coding for you. So, here are the top highlights

Hello everyone, AppCode 3.0 is just around the corner, and so today we'd like to introduce you the Release Candidate. AppCode 3.0 RC is available for download on our confluence page. Since it’s a release candidate build, there is no patch-update from the previous EAP version. And also please note that this RC build requires an active AppCode license or is available for 30 day evaluation. Here we would also like to say 'thank you' for all your feedback, suggestions and issues placed in our tracker during the EAP time. We appreciate this dialog greatly and hope the new 3.0 AppCode relea

Hello everyone, Together with all of you we are looking forward to final AppCode 3.0 release. Today the third AppCode 3.0 EAP build became available. We've decided to polish our IDE a bit. So this EAP is mostly about fixing key bugs. First, we've fixed the problem with slow autocompletion. Second, in UI Designer we've fixed a crash that has been happening on some of our user's storyboards. We've also added a possibility to use '=' together with '+' to Zoom in. We'd like to thank all the EAP evaluators for the feedback, code samples and votes on these two major issues. We really apprec

Hello everyone, Today we would like to tell you more about a bunch of changes we’ve done to simplify unit testing in AppCode. We’ll assume you’ve read our post about run configurations and if you are particularly interested in running tests you can have a look at our previous post about unit testing. The main goal of the TDD improvements in 3.0 EAP was to simplify the whole workflow. First of all, you don’t have to switch to Xcode anymore if your project doesn’t have unit tests yet: an appropriate Unit testing target can be configured in AppCode. For this open Project Settings (Cmd+;) an

Hello everyone! Today we are pleased to announce a new AppCode 3.0 Marocchino EAP build. Apart from several important bugfixes this build is notable for a great new feature inside! Please, welcome. Reveal integration Reveal is a fantastic tool from Itty Bitty Apps that helps debugging iOS applications. With this tool you get the ability to inspect view elements and hierarchies of your iOS apps at runtime using the 2D and 3D visualisations. It gives you the benefits of simplicity allowing to select subviews and not to get lost in complex hierarchy. AppCode’s users now have a possibi

Hi everyone! Spring is already here and, since it’s the time for renewal and growth, we are excited to tell you that the AppCode 3.0 Marocchino EAP is open now. We have prepared quite a lot for this build and are looking forward to telling you about the new features! Integrated UI Designer As some of you have already heard, we announced the UI Designer plugin preview last December. Time has passed and it is now fully integrated into AppCode. UI Designer supports both .xib and .storyboard formats for iOS, OS X support will come later. In the EAP version Designer supports all basic editor
