@timsneath @twostraws readable for agents, yes. the merge part i'd watch though, most pbxproj conflicts came from every target sharing one giant file, json only fixes half of that if it stays one file 🙂 218 views · 1 likes · 0 reposts · 0 replies Open on X →

Well spotted, and thank you for recognizing the hard work of the team, @twostraws! JSON should be easier to manage in source control, more readable for humans, and easier for agents to work with. Exciting times for Xcode. 13.3K views · 187 likes · 8 reposts · 5 replies Open on X →
