Hi compiler developers!

Because several people asked me (and because build-script --xcode is broken sometimes), I added some documentation on how to use Xcode together with the ninja build system: swift/DevelopmentTips.md at main · apple/swift · GitHub

If you have any questions, just let me know.

This is awesome, thanks for adding those instructions!
I think it would be great add a reference to this section in the Getting Started guide swift/GettingStarted.md at main · apple/swift · GitHub.
That's normally the document people follow when try to build targets for the first time, so maybe having a link to this so people know is an option could be helpful.
