Example app: replace CocoaPods with SPM #72

Closed antonselyanin closed 2 years ago

antonselyanin commented 2 years ago

This PR replaces CocoaPods with SPM for 'Example' app.

Pros:

Minus one 3rd party technology. You don't need to install a huge ruby library in order to just launch the Example.
Easy to modify and test Package.swift

Cons:

I had to manually edit contents.xcworkspacedata file, there is currently no way to pull this trick from Xcode UI (or I'm not aware of it) :)
Ugly ".." group in the project structure

@antonselyanin thanks!

To be honest, pretty hard PR for me in terms of general Centrifugal libraries maintenance :) Swift is not my day to day lang as I mentioned before – any changes in library structure adds some overhead for me and things to learn (I can understand code changes, but changes in layout are more time-expensive).

If you have some time probably you can elaborate more about pros and cons (and possible consequences of cons) - it can be obvious to you, but not really for me. So sorry :)
