## Summary

Tuist's founder argues that Xcode project generation remains relevant in 2025 despite Apple's efforts to unify the build system across SwiftPM and Xcode and fix Git conflicts in Xcode 16. The piece covers the ongoing challenges of managing modular Xcode projects at scale, how the ecosystem (SwiftPM, XcodeGen, Bumble's benchmarks) is responding, and how project generation tools like Tuist improve accessibility and build performance through caching. It closes with an optimistic outlook on Apple's new swift-build system and CAS-based swift-driver, and a pitch for Tuist's productivity platform.
