A CocoaPods plugin that integrates pods as prebuilt frameworks instead of source code, controlled by a simple flag in the Podfile. It compiles pod sources during pod install and swaps them for binaries to dramatically reduce Xcode compile times.
Use cases
- speed up iOS build times with many pods
- precompile CocoaPods dependencies into frameworks
- reduce Xcode indexing and compile time
- switch between source and binary pods easily
- use binary dependencies without switching to Carthage
When to choose
- your Podfile has dozens of pods and compilation is slow
- you want per-pod or all-binary control with one flag
- you prefer CocoaPods dependency management over Carthage
When to avoid
- your project doesn't use use_frameworks! dynamic frameworks
- you need to debug or step into pod source code frequently
- you rely on very new CocoaPods versions the plugin may not support
