Looking in the App Extension Programming Guide, it would seem that Application Extension templates should be available in Xcode (see Fig. 3-1).
However, I can't find any such templates in Xcode 7.1.1.
Does something need to be enabled somewhere?
What am I missing?!
Create an Application project, and then choose File>New>Target...
There you can select Application Extension .
I see... the app extesnion is sort of attached to an app we are developing.
I wanted to customize and extend the Finder's functionality by creating a switch button in the Finder toolbar that would show/hide hidden files by clicking on it.
I thought app extensions would allow me to do that, but apparently there aren't any "hooks" to easily extend the functionality of system apps.
Really a shame!
Thank you.
