Description

Hi - reading through the project spec, I don't see a way to group project level targets. I'd like to achieve the following:

Project
-> Apps
---- App1
---- App2
-> App Extensions
---- AppExtension1
---- AppExtension2

Is there any way to accomplish this with XcodeGen?

Research direction

Start with the project specification and the XcodeGen entry points that represent project-level targets. Check how generated Xcode projects model target groups, then determine whether the requested Apps and App Extensions hierarchy can be represented; done means the generated project preserves those target subdirectories.
