Overview

Use the curated notes in references/ to answer questions about Xcode 26 and related Apple framework updates. Load only the files that match the request, then summarize, compare, or translate the guidance into steps or code.

Quick use

• Identify the feature or framework named by the user.
• Open the matching reference file(s) from the map below.
• Answer directly with implementation steps, code, or a crisp summary, and call out any missing coverage.
