SwiftUI Empty App Init

Overview

Initialize a clean, single-target SwiftUI iOS app in the current directory. The project is generated using XcodeGen to produce a single .xcodeproj, leaving developers ready to start adding features immediately.

Prerequisites

Xcode installed and selected via xcode-select
XcodeGen available on PATH

If any prerequisite is missing:

Stop execution
Tell the user exactly what is missing
Do not attempt alternative scaffolding or auto-installation

Inputs

Project name (required)
Minimum iOS deployment target
Optional bundle identifier (or use default)

Defaults (use without extra confirmation)

Bundle identifier default: com.example.<ProjectName>
Proceed immediately once required inputs are provided (do not ask extra confirmations)

Core Requirements

The resulting project must:

Be generated via XcodeGen (do not hand-author project.pbxproj)
Use a single .xcodeproj (no .xcworkspace)
Contain exactly one app target
Use the SwiftUI @main App lifecycle
Contain a minimal ContentView placeholder
Contain a minimal Info.plist (avoid unnecessary scene or delegate keys)
Contain no Swift packages
Contain no test targets unless explicitly requested

Generation

Create a minimal project.yml using the provided inputs
Generate YourApp.xcodeproj using XcodeGen
Ensure the output matches all Core Requirements

Expected Structure

project.yml
YourApp.xcodeproj
YourApp/ (app target source files)
Optional config files only

No additional folders, packages, workspaces, scripts, or assets should be present.

Minimal Verification (fast)

Confirm YourApp.xcodeproj is generated successfully by XcodeGen.
Confirm the default scheme exists (e.g., via a lightweight scheme listing).
Do not boot simulators, build, install, or launch unless explicitly requested.

Notes

Keep the project minimal and unopinionated
Do not add icons/scripts, packages, workspaces, or architecture scaffolding
This skill is for app initialization only, not feature scaffolding
