Today I’ve been looking at reviving a tool that I built a while ago, which automatically builds a Github Actions workflow file for a Swift package.

I’ve been working on a simple To-Do list manager, called The Stack.

In a way you could say that simplicity is the point of The Stack, but actually I think the point is “reducing anxiety”.

There are certain personal projects that feel like cliches, due to the tendency for any and every developer to want to embark on them.

A To Do list manager is a classic case.

Nevertheless… I find myself here.

TL;DR – use the winget method to install everything

For quite a while, I’ve experienced what I thought was a bug when using xcodebuild to build projects for iOS (or any non-macOS platform), if the project or one of its dependencies used a Swift Package Manager plugin.
