'cargo ios/app' might be much better than 'cargo xcodebuild' #1

Hello there!

I just wanted to share a thought with you:
I've been searching for a tool just like this one for quite some time now. Essentially an cargo apk but for ios. But I never found this project due to its 'weird' naming.

I always searched for "cargo ios" and similar tools and only by pure chance did I found a blog article talking about this tool while trying to figure out how to use xcodegen with Rust.

My suggestion would be to rename this tool to cargo ios (following the same schema as cargo apk) or maybe cargo app. This would make it much more clearer what this project is about (building iOS apps with Rust!), without needing to know much about xcodegen. Furthermore, it would greatly improve the search index.

If wanted/required I can assist and contribute as well :) Have a nice day!

Hi, thank you! The name cargo xcodebuild was chosen because xcodebuild is the main tool for building iOS/MacOS apps. It's a part of Xcode's bundled command-line tools package.
