Tuist turns 1.0

Today we are pleased the first major release of Tuist, 1.0. We have achieved an important milestone in helping teams scale up their projects, making defining projects easy, and for that reason we are releasing this one as major. This blog post describes what that has been for the project, and what are our ambitions for Tuist 2.0.

Define your watchOS apps and extensions easily with Tuist 0.19.0

Until today, defining watchOS apps and extensions in Tuist was not possible. The good news is that from Tuist 0.19.0 that's no longer true because it extends its beautifully simplified abstractions to watchOS. On top of that, we also shipped support for enabling test coverage in the schemes, and defining the deployment targets in targets. We also took the opportunity to iron out some bugs that had been reported by users.

Welcome Swift Packages to the dependencies family in Tuist 0.18.0

Making the definition of dependencies very convenient was one of our aims when we embarked on building Tuist and today, we are extending that convenience to external dependencies that are distributed as Swift Packages. Targets can now define packages as dependencies and Tuist will take care of the rest. Moreover, this version ships with improvements in the API of dynamic Info.plist files.

Visualize your projects graph from Tuist 0.17.0

One of the difficulties of scaling up Xcode projects comes from the fact that Xcode doesn't provide a high-level picture of the structure of the project. Tuist 0.17.0 fixes that by providing a new command, 'tuist graph', that exports a graph of the project to help users of the tool visualize their project dependencies. This version also adds support for configuring Tuist globally, and also indicate the version of Xcode that is required to run the project.

Tuist 0.16.0 allows users to link system libraries and frameworks

From the just released 0.16.0 version of Tuist, users will be able to define dependencies with system libraries and frameworks from their targets. Moreover, we added support for customizing the list of input and output files in their target action, and generation of targets with no build settings at all. This version also ships with minor improvements and bug fixes that had been reported by users.

Dynamically generated Info.plist files with Tuist 0.15.0

Tuist 0.15.0 extend the beauty of generation to Info.plist. From this version on you'll be able to define the build settings as part of your manfest and let Tuist infer the default values for you. Furthermore, we extended the API to support customizing the generation of default build settings in your projects and targets, added the generation time to the 'tuist generate' command, and added support for defining custom schemes.

Workspace improvements with Tuist 0.13.0

The just baked new version of Tuist, 0.13.0, is already with us. We added significant improvements to workspaces like being able to define additional files that are added to the project. We also aligned the structured of the generated workspaces to match the filesystem. This version also makes sure that for those test targets that depend on a host application are set up with the right settings.

Tuist 0.12.0 supports defining multiple sources and resources

Following users's feedback, we have released a new version of Tuist, 0.12.0 that supports defining multiple sources and resources. Moreover, we added a new product type for those of you that would like to opt for static linking, and added generation of schemes with all the targets that are part of the project. This version also drops support for defining the manifests as a JSON file because Swift will pave our way to a better maintainability and reusability.
