About:
XcodeKotlin is a native plugin that brings first-class Kotlin language support to Xcode. It enables features like syntax highlighting, code completion, and error highlighting directly within the IDE. This tool bridges the gap for developers working on iOS projects that share code with Kotlin Multiplatform Mobile (KMM).
Key Features:
  • Native Xcode plugin architecture
  • Real-time syntax highlighting and error reporting
  • Code completion and jump-to-definition support
  • Seamless integration with Kotlin Multiplatform Mobile workflows
Use Cases:
  • Developing iOS applications within a Kotlin Multiplatform Mobile (KMM) project
  • Viewing and editing Kotlin source files in Xcode with proper language support
  • Debugging shared Kotlin code used by an iOS app
Alternatives:
  • AppCode – A full JetBrains IDE for iOS development with native Kotlin support, but requires a separate license and is heavier than Xcode.
  • VS Code + Kotlin Plugin – A lightweight alternative for editing Kotlin code, but lacks the deep integration with Xcode project files and iOS build tools.
