If I want to open source one class and its tests, I basically have to configure an entire toolchain for it, even if it’s nothing special.

It would be nice to not even deal with Xcode for such small components.

Wanted: an official scripting library for generating xcodeprojs. And a similar library for manipulating build pipelines live

isn't there an open source tool that creates Xcodeprojs that's co developed with cocoapods?
