I am new to XCode and Swift. Trying to create a simple project that uses MQTT protocol. For that, there is a Swift library

Question: do I still need to do CocoaPad installation as described above, or importing the package as I did is the new and sufficient way to integrate the library into the project? The Podfile that is mentioned in the instructions cannot be modified in XCode.

CodePudding user response：

[Swift package] is the new and sufficient way

Correct. The library is now installed in your project and there is no further work to do.

In general, Swift packages supersede Cocoapods. Wherever possible, if a library offers a Swift package installation, you'll probably want to use that rather than Cocoapods.

In this particular case, you should file an issue on the documentation. They have added Swift Package as an alternative way of installing this library but they have forgotten to add that information to the instructions in the Readme.
