What they do
Problem
iOS developers using Xcode lose time and focus switching to Cursor to use AI coding commands during development.
Solution
Alex is a fast sidebar app that integrates directly with Xcode and provides Cursor-like commands (Cmd+L, Cmd+K, Apply Code) inside the IDE.
Who it's for
iOS developers building apps in Xcode who want Cursor-style AI assistance without leaving the IDE.
