If you have been on the web today, Saturday April 1st 2023 you will have seen that everyone is talking about the latest Apple leak. The entire source code for Xcode 15 is available and ready for us to use!

The leak

Instead of thinking about the whys and wherefores about the leak, I’m much more interested about what Xcode 15 can do.

But first: What it can’t do

Limitations of the Alpha

Upload to the App Store

You won’t be able to upload new Apps that have used the revolutionary features of Xcode 15 to the App store (yet).

Understand regional accents

The voice-activated features have only been tested by a small team at Apple, and they are yet to enable voice recognition for regional accents. This technology will soon be rolling out that solves this problem, and we all hope it can also be pushed to Siri.

Use UIKit

It’s SwiftUI from hereon in unfortunately. We don’t know if UIKit will make a return for the full release, but Apple haven’t said anything so far.
