- Create Swift functions, properties and variables just by using them with Create from Usage actions.
- Experience significantly improved editor performance, and faster completion, navigation and code resolution in pure Swift and mixed Swift/Objective-C code.
- See all the errors and warnings in your Swift code almost instantly with massive performance optimisations made in the SourceKit integration.
- Run and debug your UI tests using the built-in AppCode test runner and fix any issue faster by running only failed tests.
- If doing C++, check user-defined literals, C++14 digit separator and improved overload resolution support, as well as dozens of fixes for false-positive code analysis checks.
- Understand how data flow through the code with semantic highlighting for Swift, Objective-C and C++.
- Check out undo actions and sign-off commit in VCS, as well as an improved UI and speed-up filtering in Git/Mercurial log.
