Use Xcode Source Extensions with Key Bindings
We have the technology. We can make it better than it was. Better, stronger, faster.
I am a Software Engineer working on open source and enterprise mobile SDKs for iOS and MacOS developers written in Swift. From 🇩🇪 and happily living in 🇺🇸
Save time by associating a keyboard shortcut with the extension command in Xcode > Preferences... > Key Bindings menu.
In my example, I defined short ⌃⇧D for the primary command of extension SwiftPlantUML.
Note: You should choose a shortcut that does not conflict with the default binding.
My shortcut allows me to quickly generate a class diagram for the currently selected source code.
Source editor extensions can read and modify the contents of a source file and read and modify the current text selection within the editor. More cool extensions are listed in the GitHub repository awesome-xcode-extensions.
