description	Guides day-to-day work in Tuist-generated Xcode workspaces, including generation, build and test commands, and buildable folders. Use when working in a Tuist-generated project or when users mention `tuist generate`, `xcodebuild test`, or generated workspaces.

Using Tuist Generated Projects

Quick Start

# Generate workspace without opening Xcode
tuist generate --no-open

# Build a scheme with xcodebuild
xcodebuild build -workspace App.xcworkspace -scheme App

# Run tests with xcodebuild
xcodebuild test -workspace App.xcworkspace -scheme AppTests -only-testing AppTests/MyTestCase

Project definition

Prefer buildable folders

Use buildableFolders instead of sources and resources globs. Buildable folders stay synchronized with the file system, so adding or removing files does not require regeneration.

let target = Target(
  name: "App",
  buildableFolders: [
    "App/Sources",
    "App/Resources",
  ]
)

Tag targets for focus

Use target tags to group areas of the project, for example:

• tag:team:*
• tag:feature:*
• tag:layer:*

These tags make it easier to scope generation and testing later.

Example target metadata with tags:

let target  (
  name: ,
  metadata: .metadata(tags: [
    ,
    ,
    ,
  ])
)
