Hi HN,<p>I&#x27;m a full-stack web and mobile developer who loves programming and making apps. I have a good amount of experience on both, but am newer to mobile dev.<p>Lately, I&#x27;ve been struggling with the compile time on iOS. E.g., If I implement a new animation feature or create a new model back by an API and want to experiment&#x2F;tweak those features, I have to constantly rebuild my app which kills my flow. If I do something similar on the web (front-end or server-side), I see the changes immediately.<p>Does anyone have any tips for lowering the time-to-feedback for iOS development? Is there any tools that can help with it? Any things on the horizon that look promising in this regard? Do you have this issue?<p>Another note on this topic: 1) I&#x27;ve made some hybrid apps with Phonegap and really enjoyed the experience because I could live-reload while developing, but I find those apps don&#x27;t feel the same as native apps.
