Cocoapod is a package dependency manager for Objective-C and Swift projects with XCode. Those Languages are used to make applications that run iOS, macOS, watchOS and tvOS. Cocoapods also acts as a coding hub to share your code with other people. That way we as a community of coders don’t have to “re-invent the wheel” to tackle problems that have already been solved.

\n

Installing Cocoapods

\n

Cocoapods is built on top of Ruby, so you would need to install that in your system before using Cocoapods.
\nThen, you can install using this command:
\nsudo gem install cocoapods

\n

Using Cocoapods

\n

Open Terminal and go to your XCode project directory.
\nAfterwards, run this command:
\npod init

\n

Then a Podfile is generated, configure the file, like so:

\n
platform :ios, '8.0'  \nuse_frameworks!  \ntarget 'MyApp' do  \n pod 'AFNetworking', '~> 2.6'   pod 'ORStackView', '~> 3.0'  \n pod 'SwiftyJSON', '~> 2.3'\nend
\n

Where ‘MyApp’ is your application project and the ‘pod’ inside it are the libraries that you want to use! If you need to control which version of those libraries you can manipulate it on the right side of the config.

\n

Updating Cocoapods

\n

If you want to keep up to date with the codes shared in cocoapods you can run the command:
\npod update

\n

That way any latest bug fixes, enhancement and features on the new version will be downloaded!
\nTo see which Libraries that you want to utilize, head over to cocoapods and search over there!
