I don't expect this will be much more than the next "evolution" of Playgrounds.<p>I don't think Apple would even want/be willing to support anything other than Swift, and probably only iOS/Catalyst development. Anything complex with multiple languages (Objective-C, Swift, C, C++ and/or any scripting) would probably not be supported, so there wouldn't be any chance of "porting" your existing projects to this iXcode.<p>It might be an evolution towards "coding-as-a-service", which I've been expecting: <a href="https://macintouch.com/community/index.php?threads/competition-technology-apple-management-plans.678/post-13876" rel="nofollow">https://macintouch.com/community/index.php?threads/competiti...</a>
This will be a lot more useful if we get terminal access as well, even if it's just to a sandbox or container and the ability to link compiled libraries in other languages to our code in this version of xcode.
The market is much more interested in Linux/Windows versions. But I guess they still want you to buy the hardware/OS to get the full living-in-the-Apple ecosystem experience to inform what you create for your users.<p>Disclaimer: I use all Apple gear.
