Swimat is an Xcode source editor plug-in that formats Swift code, built as a hand-written character scanner. It is now archived and unmaintained, superseded by swift-format built into Xcode.

Use cases

  • format swift code inside xcode
  • xcode plugin to reformat swift files
  • auto-format swift source with a keyboard shortcut
  • swift code formatter for xcode editor extension

When to choose

  • you need to read or study the historical source of an early Xcode formatter
  • you are pinned to a very old Xcode/macOS setup where it still runs

When to avoid

  • you want to format Swift in current Xcode - use built-in swift-format (Editor → Structure → Format File)
  • you need a configurable Xcode formatting extension - use SwiftFormat for Xcode
  • you need CI or pre-commit formatting - use SwiftFormat or swift-format
  • your code uses regex literals, custom operators, or nested block comments, which Swimat can corrupt
