[Question] Why we can't integrate Lookin into release build configuration? #24

I'm wondering why we can't integrate Lookin into release build configuration. Is it because of security? I just want to put it in my Xcode SPM settings and use it, would that be a problem?

Three reasons:

  1. Your online users or other companies' programmers can operate your App through Lookin, which may bring risks.
  2. I'm not sure if Lookin's code could cause the App Store to reject the review.
  3. As a personal amateur-maintained debugging tool, its stability will not be adequately tested, so it may bring potential crash risks to your online App.

You can certainly integrate Lookin through SPM. But according to the configuration of LookinServer's Package.swift, by default, it will only be compiled under Debug conditions.
