Hello,

I am quite new to coding and Swift but I am keen to learn. I am looking to build a AR library app that can pull USD assets that can be viewed and manipulated in various ways. I am following a lot of tutorials to get started. One place I am getting trumped at the moment is adding additional packages. For this example I am trying link this repository - https://github.com/firebase/firebase-ios-sdk.git When I press on the add document at the top left > Swift Package and I paste the url, I get a spinning Fetching Packages and then nothing happens. Could someone please assist me.

Best, Bobby

If you are serious about app development, you probably want to use Xcode rather than Playgrounds.
("Playgrounds"... the clue is in the name!)

Haha yeah absolutely that is my intention. I have my first ever Mac (the new MacBook) on order but it's not gonna arrive on this side of the year. So I thought get a head start with Playgrounds during the holidays.
