While developing on xcode, I will be spending more time on waiting for the xcode to respond to my actions than actually writing code, especially when editing the storyboard, FUCK APPLE!

    Yeah, xcode is too fucking slow, I wish that alternatives exist...

    So it's slow even on a newer Mac?

    @rein do you know if there are problems working with that IDE and other xcodes while working with a source control?

    @deusprogrammer There are many caveats, such as if you have storyboard open while you are editing, when change every line in your code it triggers a build which hangs xcode for a period of 2-5 secs depending on your luck. This period of 2-5 secs would however be extended to 10-20secs if you have source control enabled. Ok how do I know this you ask? Because I have tried many things trying to find out what causes the shitty performance and pin pointed it to Apple's shitty storyboard and source control mechanism.

    @RogelioHit Yes DO NOT enable source control (which is enabled by default in the latest xcode so you need to disable it manually).

    The way the storyboard works its a pain in the ass, it's definitely not source control friendly at all

    @RogelioHit I havent tried it too much to say, but it looks promising.
