About:
XcodeClangFormat integrates the Clang Format code formatting tool directly into Xcode. It automatically formats your source code according to predefined or custom style rules every time you save a file. This ensures consistent code style across your project and saves developers significant time on manual formatting tasks.
Key Features:
  • Automatic formatting on save
  • Support for custom .clang-format configuration files
  • Integration directly into the Xcode editor interface
  • Supports Objective-C, C++, and Swift code
Use Cases:
  • Enforcing consistent code style across large teams
  • Automating code cleanup during development
  • Migrating legacy codebases to a new style guide
Alternatives:
  • ClangFormat-Xcode – A similar plugin, though XcodeClangFormat is often cited for better stability and Swift support.
  • SwiftLint – Focuses specifically on Swift style and linting, whereas XcodeClangFormat handles C-family languages via Clang.
