Agentic Development Setup
SwiftAI Boilerplate Pro ships with a production-testedCLAUDE.md that gives Claude Code full project context from the first message. Combined with community skills, Claude understands your architecture, follows your patterns, and can build and verify features autonomously.
Ready out of the box.
CLAUDE.md is included in the boilerplate. Open Claude Code in your project directory and start building.How It Works
CLAUDE.md tells Claude about your project: the MVVM architecture, module boundaries, which abstractions to use, build commands, and what patterns to follow.
Community skills teach Claude about iOS development in general: SwiftUI best practices, App Store guidelines, simulator automation.
| Layer | What It Provides | File |
|---|---|---|
| Project-specific | Architecture, abstractions, module boundaries | docs/CLAUDE.md |
| Domain-wide | iOS best practices, debugging, testing, App Store | Community skills |
