ha-ios-architecture

Home Assistant iOS project layout, build setup, and the "World" dependency-injection pattern. Use when starting work in the repo, deciding where code lives across targets (App, Shared, Watch, CarPlay, Extensions), accessing dependencies through the global `Current`, or setting up dependencies and code signing.

How Strings Work

Add strings to the English .strings file: Sources/App/Resources/en.lproj/Localizable.strings
SwiftGen auto-generates type-safe accessors in Sources/Shared/Resources/Swiftgen/Strings.swift when building the app
Use generated accessors via the L10n enum:

// In Localizable.strings:
"settings.title" = "Settings";
"sensor.name_%@" = "Sensor: %@";

// In Swift code (auto-generated):
let title = L10n.Settings.title
let name = L10n.Sensor.name("Temperature")

There are multiple string tables:

Localizable.strings → L10n enum
Core.strings → CoreStrings enum
Frontend.strings → FrontendStrings enum

All string lookup flows through Current.localized.string which handles locale fallback.

Important: Translations for other languages are managed externally via Lokalise. Only add/modify strings in the en.lproj files.
