In order to develop a complex Raspberry Pi project. The best way to go is getting XCode handshaking with Rasberry Pi. That is amazing for guys who use a MAC. We're able take advantage of XCode, make development more productivity, convenient and more fun.

Set up Swift environment on Raspberry Pi (part 1/2)
Do you think about writing a program in Swift on Raspberry. Why not? Let's make it fun. I have spent the weekend to try out. My target was set up the environment for Swift programming on my Raspberry Pi 3B+.
Compile and run Apple’s SwiftNIO
Last month, I wrote a post about How to setup SwiftNIO for iOS and tvOS. Basically, I manually create all the targets in a new project, set up everything from scratch. It takes time and I wonder there is a better way? I go back to the start point, try to compile the original Swift-NIO project, finally I see how it works.
Setup Swift-NIO for iOS, tvOS
I look over Swift NIO, and I see it kind of potential. Written on the top of POSIX socket. Simple, lightweight. Some parts of its core are written in C or reuse C library. It even reuses the NGNIX's HTTP parser in its core. I have found out that this parser is used widely in some well-known software and open sources. Some instances are NodeJs's parser, IBM-Swift's Kitura-net,...
Keep the watch app away from Release Build
WatchOS app is an extension, it doesn't stand alone. It basically needs a host app. The WatchOS project usually is a sub-project which eventually its product will be attached to the main app. But XCode doesn’t give us an option to keep the extension out for Release Build.
