Kin is a command-line syntax checker for Xcode's project.pbxproj files, built with an ANTLR 4 grammar. It detects errors in the project configuration file and reports the offending line with a short description.
Use cases
- check if my project.pbxproj file is valid
- find syntax errors in xcode project file after a bad merge
- lint project.pbxproj in CI to catch broken xcode builds
- verify pbxproj file syntax from the command line
- detect which line of project.pbxproj is malformed
When to choose
- you work with Xcode projects and want to catch pbxproj merge conflicts or syntax errors early
- you want a lightweight CLI verifier to run in CI pipelines for iOS projects
- you need a fast syntax check without opening Xcode
When to avoid
- you need to modify or rewrite project.pbxproj files, not just validate them
- you need full semantic validation of Xcode project settings rather than syntax checking
- you don't use Xcode or pbxproj-based projects
