idev2025 9bd267269d refactor: clean template repo — move SoliCards to its own repo
Moved all SoliCards app code to a dedicated repository:
https://git.istratai.cloud/aj/SoliCards-iOS-iPadOS-MacOS

This repo is now a clean workflow template with just PROMPT.md,
CLAUDE.md, README.md, and CHANGELOG.md.

XCode-Claude-Workflow

A structured 8-phase workflow for building App Store-ready iOS/macOS applications using Xcode + Claude Code.

What This Is

A methodology prompt (PROMPT.md) that guides Claude Code through transforming existing code — prototypes, web apps, partial implementations — into production-quality native Apple applications.

How to Use

  1. Clone this repo
  2. Point Claude Code to your existing code folder
  3. Paste or reference PROMPT.md as the task prompt
  4. Follow the 8 phases: Audit → Architecture → Implementation → Persistence → Accessibility → Quality → App Store → Documentation

Phases

# Phase What Happens
0 Codebase Intake Read every file, produce audit report, confirm platform
1 Architecture Propose pattern (MVVM/TCA), scaffold Xcode project
2 Core Features Implement one feature at a time with tests
3 Data & Persistence SwiftData, networking, error states
4 Accessibility VoiceOver, Dynamic Type, localization
5 Performance Instruments profiling, 70%+ test coverage
6 App Store Prep Privacy manifest, icons, archive, metadata
7 Documentation SETUP.md, CHANGELOG.md, ARCHITECTURE.md

Example

This workflow was used to build SoliCards-iOS-iPadOS-MacOS — a solitaire card game ported from JavaScript to native SwiftUI for iOS, iPadOS, and macOS.
