Liftoff is a command-line tool for generating and configuring new iOS Xcode projects. It scaffolds a project directory structure, sets up git, and applies opinionated build settings like warnings-as-errors, static analysis, and TODO/FIXME script phases.

Use cases

• scaffold a new iOS Xcode project from the command line
• apply consistent build settings and warnings to an existing Xcode project
• automatically initialize git with .gitignore and an initial commit for a new app
• share a standard team project configuration via a liftoffrc file
• set version numbers from git tags automatically in Xcode builds

When to choose

• you frequently start new iOS projects and want opinionated, repeatable setup
• you want to enforce consistent warnings, static analysis, and git setup across projects

When to avoid

• you need actively maintained tooling - the project is seeking new maintainers and its last release was 2020
• you work on non-Apple platforms or use non-Xcode build systems
