Xcode template + installer for Embedded Swift on ESP32-C6

Hi! I've been working on an Xcode-first workflow for Embedded Swift on ESP32-C6.

GitHub: GitHub - letstakeabreak/Embedded-Swift-Xcode-Template: Write ESP32-C6 firmware in Swift — build and flash directly from Xcode, just like Arduino IDE. · GitHub

What it does:

  • Xcode project template (File → New → Project → ESP32-C6)
  • Cmd+B builds and flashes via ESP-IDF automatically
  • Cmd+R streams serial output into the Xcode console
  • SwiftUI installer app (.dmg) for one-click setup
  • Onboard NeoPixel (WS2812, GPIO 8) RGB cycle as a "first success" smoke test

Tested on macOS 26, Apple Silicon, and an ESP32-C6 compatible board.
Should work with the official DevKit as well, though not verified.

Still early — feedback on approach and direction very welcome!
