SwiftTweaks by Khan
Tweak your iOS app without recompiling!
About SwiftTweaks
From the project's README at github.com/Khan/SwiftTweaks. Lightly cleaned for readability; for the full source see the upstream repo.
Adjust your iOS app on the fly without waiting to re-compile!
Your users won’t see your animation study, Sketch comps, or prototypes. What they will see is the finished product - so it’s really important to make sure that your app feels right on a real device!
Animations that look great on your laptop often feel too slow when in-hand. Layouts that looks perfect on a 27-inch display might be too cramped on a 4-inch device. Light gray text may look subtle in Sketch, but it’s downright illegible when you’re outside on a sunny day.
These animation timings, font sizes, and color choices are all examples of “magic numbers” - the constants that give your app its usability and identity. The goal of SwiftTweaks: allow you to fine-tune these magic numbers in the debug builds of your Swift project, without having to wait for Xcode to rebuild the app.
