Hej hej tl;dr. I have problems building a Playground App using Xcode Cloud and I created a reference repository to reproduce this. Did anyone try this before and succeeded? Maybe you have a hint about what's going wrong here. Initial Failure I followed the documentation for Building Swift packages and Swift Playgrounds app projects with Xcode Cloud and I have always run into the following error message: ❌ Code Signing Exporting for App Store Distribution failed. Please download the logs artifact for more information Check Logs “Fair game!” I thought, checked out the logs and see this error appearing twice in each of the following steps: Export archive for ad-hoc distribution Export archive for development distribution Export archive for app-store distribution 5.3 Sec. Run command: 'xcodebuild -exportArchive -archivePath /Volumes/workspace/tmp/3546d064-74fa-42d0-8b36-3623e18941be.xcarchive -exportPath /Volumes/workspace/adhocexport -exportOptionsPlist /Volumes/workspace/ci/ad-hoc-exportoptions.plist '-DVTPortalRequest.Endpoint=http://172.16.35.199:8089' -DVTProvisioningIsManaged=YES -IDEDistributionLogDirectory=/Volumes/workspace/tmp/ad-hoc-export-archive-logs -DVTSkipCertificateValidityCheck=YES -DVTServicesLogLevel=3' Error Command exited with non-zero exit-code: 70 Moving forward, I downloaded the logs artifact as suggested earlier.

Notice the absence of the Applications folder that would contain the Application.app bundle. Current Status So I created a clean, sample repository for my integration. Did anyone try this before and succeeded? Maybe you have a hint about what's going wrong here.

Hi apple I have been stuck for 2 days and it still does not work

why are people having problems with the playground download when some people have full access to it What is the difference between us and other people who have it

When making a new Swift Playground via Xcode > New > Project > iOS > App Playground, as a .swiftpm package, the settings are very limited, including setting the minimum OS version. This is incredibly irritating because I can't keep make @available blocks because that would double the size of my code, and I can't use SwiftData (for example) because my app needs to also support iOS 16. Is there a way to set the minimum OS or some other upload type accepted for Apple so that I can change this simple setting? Thank you

Okay everyone who click into or just pass by this post ,to cut a farrrirly long story short ,here is the thing... I was devloping my app in the playground on my Mac , which was building for the iPad, In the early time of real machine commissioning(through the Xcode ),everything is okay everything is okay.. "well,mabe it's time to deploy my app to the playground in ipad"! Then,to top it all off🤣,then playground tell me (In case that you can't understand chinese and creat ambiguity ) emm that's too tight...,so I can only got back to the Xcode changing my language version to swift 5 then..... Noting change .... and I think err.. in order to properly deploy app to iPad ,I had to rework my code with swift 5! So, I almost fell on my knees ,can somebody who in charge of the playground ,can somebody who in charge of the playground ,just ,just! shove swift 6 in the playground (as long as it make my code run anyway), otherwise there's no way to debug it! please please plase!

I want to use Swift language to write code for drawing multiple polygons. I would like to find some examples as references. Can anyone provide example code or tell me where I can see such examples? Thank you!

Hello all! I am currently facing an issue where I am receiving an "ios app products are only permitted in swift playground packages" error when trying to build the app. I forked a branch from the git repo that my friend made not too long ago, yet I still can't figure out what the issue was. I can provide the repo if needed.

When I create a new iOS playground in Xcode 16.0 with an iOS 18.0 SDK installed, I cannot use some of the new features such as the new way for programming tab layouts. When I just use an Xcode project, these features work as expected. In a playground, I get errors saying "x is only available in iOS 18.0 and later". I have noticed this for more than just this feature. Is there some way I can force the playground to run with iOS 18 as I have the appropriate SDKs installed?

I would like to program an app in Swift Playground that displays WhatsApp Web in a webview, so to speak. But I keep seeing an error like in the screenshot. My Code: import SwiftUI import WebKit import PlaygroundSupport struct WebView: UIViewRepresentable { let url: URL func makeUIView(context: Context) -&gt; WKWebView { let webView = WKWebView() let request = URLRequest(url: url) webView.load(request) return webView } func updateUIView(_ webView: WKWebView, context: Context) { } } struct ContentView: View { var body: some View { WebView(url: URL(string: "https://web.whatsapp.com")!) .edgesIgnoringSafeArea(.all) } } PlaygroundPage.current.setLiveView(ContentView())

Hi! I have a remote student who's learning to code in Swift using Playgrounds - Learn to Code 2. It's frustrating to try to test his code when we think he as part of a solution to a puzzle because he can't run his code twice in the same puzzle without resetting the puzzle - when he tries, the page gives an error, and he has to reload the whole puzzle, which erases his code. As a workaround, he's been copying his code and reloading the puzzle whenever he wants to test out a partial solution. Is there an easier way to do this?

Hello, I am currently editing an iOS app playground in Xcode 16.0 on macOS 15.1 beta 3. When I create a new file using the SwiftUI View template, I am not prompted to name the file and it just uses the default file name. Afterwards, I am not able to rename the file to a name that suits my project. Is there a workaround for this? Thanks!

I am currently running MacOS 12.7.6 version and this is the last update on my machine, and swift playgrounds is not downloading in it, so I want its older version, I think I need Swift Playgrounds 4.1, so please give me a solution. Thank you so much!

now,ipad pro has M4.It support Swift Playgrounds,but must be built with a minimum of Xcode 15? Why still need a mac, when I want to develop an ipad app!

Hello... for some reason, XCode previews are no longer working for me. It was working fine a week ago, however, now no matter ho many times i reboot or restart my computer, the preview won't load. The preview is stuck on "loading Preview" no matter how long I wait. I ran the same files on swift playgrounds and the preview works fine there, but not on XCode. I ran both my project and a completely new, unedited project and both will not preview- so I know it is not a problem with my file. Also, the second I open the app the preview pauses. Either way, I don't think an app with only one file should take so long to build...

hi im fairly new to coding.. about a month, just so u know.. 😇 I am going through the tasks in (Swift Playgrounds) and I am currently in (Learning to code 2) the chapter is (Random gems everywhere) and I tried every possible solution to complete it, but to no avail! any suggestions, comments, or corrections or tips, would be greatly appreciated! I will attach some screenshots for a reference of what I'm trying to accomplish..

Hi all! I am using Swift Playgrounds 4.5.1 on Mac and iPad. When I create new book, they both create new book with Swift 5.9 (instead of Swift 5.10). Is this a bug? The release notes says since 4.5.0 the Swift version has been upgraded to 5.10. Thanks B

is there a beta version of Swift Playgrounds that supports the latest iPadOS 18 SDK, or do i have to use XCode on Mac?

Try to learn some Swift coding but Playgrounds keeps crashing. I run Playgrounds 4.1 on latest Monterey 12.7.5, from a MacBook Air dated back 2017. Part of the error log says: Thread 9 Crashed:: Dispatch queue: com.apple.UIKit._UIViewServiceInterfaceConnectionRequest com.apple.PlaygroundsMac.ExecutionExtension The error can be reproduced by re-running the code; Everything goes well when the code was run at first time, but is doomed to fail at second run. Any help?

My Mac is older one. I just started to learn Swift. I want to practice it. So I downloaded Xcode 14.2 for MacOS 12.7.4 (21H1123) On tutorials, it is showing live result. But for me nothing is happening. It is blank. How do I enable it?

I've noticed Playgrounds crashing a lot lately, both on iPad and Mac. I have many Macs, Intel & M1, and 2 iPads, 7th Gen and 10.5" Pro. It's noticeably sluggish at the best of times progressively getting worse the last few updates, but worse than that it is hard crashing, losing data in the process. Anyone else seeing this? Not the end of the world, I'm a dev and use Xcode for anything substantial but I like to use Playgrounds on the iPad sometimes when I want to pop a quick idea down. I also plan to start creating playgrounds to help kids get into programming, so hoping this useful app isn't being neglected.
