CocoaPods is a dependency manager for Cocoa projects. You can install it with the following command:
$ gem install cocoapodsCocoaPods 1.1.0+ is required to build SwiftlyExt.
To integrate SwiftlyExt into your Xcode project using CocoaPods, specify it in your Podfile:
source 'https://github.com/CocoaPods/Specs.git'
platform :ios, '10.0'
use_frameworks!
target '<Your Target Name>' do
pod 'SwiftlyExt', '~> 1.3'
endThen, run the following command:
$ pod installCarthage is a decentralized dependency manager that builds your dependencies and provides you with binary frameworks.
You can install Carthage with Homebrew using the following command:
$ brew update
$ brew install carthageTo integrate SwiftlyExt into your Xcode project using Carthage, specify it in your Cartfile:
github "khoiln/SwiftlyExt" ~> 1.3
Run carthage update to build the framework and drag the built SwiftlyExt.framework into your Xcode project. U
Adding SwiftlyExt as a dependency is as easy as adding it to the dependencies value of your Package.swift file.

.Package(url: "https://github.com/khoiln/SwiftlyExt.git", majorVersion: 1)
]Note that the Swift Package Manager is still in early design and development, but SwiftlyExt does support its use on supported platforms.
There are many handy usages of SwiftlyExt, head over CocoaDocs for the comprehensive documentation.
We'll try to list some of the cool examples here.
