Already in #C3PQML5NU but implications so huge (and positive!) for #C9JM6Q2UX that it deserves a cross-post IMO ❤️:

I'm not sure we're going to get AppCode features in JetBrains Platform. It would be nice, but I'm not holding out hope. At the minimum to get something AppCode like, they need to index the Apple SDKs and provide completion for the functions in them.

I also really doubt they'll integrate with Xcode projects. That was one of the reasons they gave for EOLing AppCode. They were tired of chasing Apple on every Xcode update.

AppCode already was/is an IntelliJ-family (JetBrains Platform) IDE. Have you seen screenshots? Looks the same.
So those feature are probably already quite portable to IntelliJ.

Yeah this is the part they don't need to replicate.
The Swift indexing and modelling are what could be taken from.

I used AppCode for several years and am familiar with its benefits and shortcomings.

Just give me that and I'm at least somewhat happy. ;)
