👉 In case you missed it, I've been testing the limits of Xcode 26.3's agentic programming support this week, using Codex. I've built a bunch of functional apps with it, ported an ObjC app to Swift, and then ported that Swift app in its entirety to Android, and ported a game from Unity3D to SpriteKit. I've used 85% of my (temporarily 2X'd) weekly credits on the $20 ChatGPT Plus plan.
