WWDC 2017: Apple Making It Simple

#Highlights of iOS #Xcode 9:

1. Deploy and debug Wirelessly - now you can deploy and debug your app on a real iOS device without using the USB cable but through Wi-Fi.

2. Refactoring with swift- this has been one of the most anticipating features. Finally you can easily rename a class or method in your code.

3. GitHub integration - now you can access your GitHub respository right in Xcode.

4. Improved source code editor - Apple claimed the editor is slicker and more intelligent. Say, your class adopts the UITableViewDataSource protocol, the editor can detect the error and automatically insert the required methods for you.

5.Multiple simulators at time - now you can run multiple simulators at the same time.
