## What it is
An Xcode plug-in that integrates clang-format so developers can format C/Objective-C/C++ code inside Xcode using styles like LLVM, Google, or a custom .clang-format file. It supports format-on-save, keyboard shortcuts, and per-project style configuration.

## Use cases
- format Objective-C code in Xcode with clang-format
- automatically format files on save in Xcode
- apply a consistent code style across an Xcode project
- use a custom .clang-format configuration in Xcode
- assign keyboard shortcuts to code formatting in Xcode

## When to choose
- You develop C, C++, or Objective-C in Xcode and want clang-format integration
- You want format-on-save or shortcut-triggered formatting inside Xcode
- Your team needs a shared .clang-format style applied in the editor

## When to avoid
- You use Xcode 8.3+ and cannot or will not unsign Xcode to allow community plugins
- You use Swift only, where Xcode's built-in Swift formatting tools suffice
- You need a formatter for editors other than Xcode
