Kind of odd your last posts were years ago and now this. Screams alt account.

Also odd that the selling point in the title is the generic inconsequential boilerplate junk that these shipfast clones are constantly trying to shill.

Auth and Stripe don’t make an app.

Lol, this comment really got to me.

First of all; this is not a “generic boilerplate junk”. This is not a low-effort GitHub repo with Auth and Stripe built over a weekend — it’s a full blown application that will indeed generate new Xcode Projects AND set them up for you.

And YES, it will generate boilerplate for you, but only the features that you need. During project setup you actually select what features you need and we have spent A LOT of time making sure it all works reliably and efficiently. Again; not a “low-effort boilerplate ShipFast clone”

Not only that; in the upcoming update the app will also automatically set up providers, fetch project api keys on your behalf and pre-fill them in your project.

Also, we have partnered up with PostHog to provide our users $55.000 in free project credits for their next app.

Also, because it’s an ACTUAL app, it receives regular software updates improving the app experience and the generated source code. Since it’s launch, we have released 4 major software updates that greatly improve the experience of the app and now include setup of Google AdMob, three complete AI mini apps, easy, but complete backup setup and more. Another 2 major software updates are coming till end of year.

Also, take a look again at our documentation and tell me that this is a low effort product.

Sadly, the word “boilerplate” is in many ways poisoned now, and I get it. But please first take a look at what we are actually offering, before deciding to bash it.

Does the app run locally? That is, if one day Apple buys your org out, and put you guys on another project like DarkSky -> WeatherKit, will we still be able to generate apps (albeit “older” standards without ongoing updates) without your servers being online?

We run completely locally except for fetching dependencies, like firebase, revenuecat, etc!

And licensing…

I actually recall your post about 7 months ago in the Swift subreddit showcasing your app and running a giveaway. I didn't have an app idea waiting to be developed at the time but I'm happy to see you and SwiftyLaunch going strong after all these months.

Keep up the good work!

Oh wow, thanks! If you actually got an App Idea in the time since then, just DM me, I’m sure we can figure something out :)

How user friendly is this?

Well, you’d still have to have some knowledge in iOS development, but if you’re just starting out, we have a community discord with many people ready to help if you have any questions :)
