Description

You might remember the repo I created last year:
https://github.com/markst/hotreloading-vscode-ios
https://github.com/yonaskolb/XcodeGen/pull/1218

I had conceived the idea of creating an extension which would enable creating the project.yml and generating the xcodeproj in order to build and run using Visual Studio Code without every having to open Xcode.app.

I've since found the time to start creating a VSCode extension which can wrap up some of this process:
https://github.com/markst/vscode-xcodegen-builder
