O Xcode, agentes e você

An overview of coding agents in Xcode 27, and what you'll learn in this session: how to explore a codebase, plan and build features, refine with visual design, and orchestrate multi-step tasks using agents.

Maxwell and Devin introduce the workout tracking app they're building together — a starting point for exploring how agents support each phase of development.

Learn how agents in Xcode help you get up to speed on a new project. Use a walkthrough to understand data models and view hierarchies, leverage Apple Document Search for accurate framework knowledge, and capture what you learn as reusable architecture documents.

Use plan mode to design an architecture before writing any code, communicate requirements in real time using queued messages, and rely on Xcode's build, preview, and test tools to validate new features as they're implemented.

Iterate on visual design using Swift Charts with realistic previews. Use image attachments to convey design intent, and inline annotations to direct targeted changes right from your source code — keeping creative direction in your hands throughout.

Describe high-level goals like localization and accessibility, and let Xcode discover the right tools and coordinate sub-agents to accomplish them in parallel — delivering results quickly.
