Xcode’s Code Assistant Introduced at WWDC 2025

Just ran a quick test with the new generative intelligence in Xcode 26 (announced at WWDC25).

The prompt I used is a follows:

Create me a list in a VStack with 20 random names

Very basic, but it worked!

Note: it requires macOS 26 beta.

Initial impression: It’s great to finally have a native, integrated LLM solution for code generation in Xcode.

I took it a step further by adding avatars for each person. Initially, it used an SVG param, but that resulted in a fetch error. After a follow-up prompt and replacing with PNG, we now have a list of names, each paired with an avatar fetched from its own provided URL. It’s still in the very early days, but I’m loving having this native solution.
