Additionally, Swift Playgrounds 4 corrects a number of shortcomings in Xcode UX, like the necessity of dealing with Info.plist files to specify many project settings and capabilities.

Additionally, Swift Playgrounds 4.0 comes with a host of quality-of-life enhancements. For instance, you can preview changes to your app as you make them in real-time.

Swift Playgrounds can be used to create apps with iOS and iPadOS 15.2 that run on iPhones, iPads, and M1 Macs, but you cannot create Apple Watch apps or Mac apps that aren’t built for iOS or iPadOS.

Any code created in Swift Playground can be exported and then brought into Xcode, where the code can be used to make an actual iOS app.
