xc

$ xc

The best command to run Xcode app what you want.

distinction

  • Short! This command is short as cd and ls that use frequently!
  • Fast! This command is blazingly fast to find and sort Xcode apps on the machine!
  • Easy! This command is too easy to type and memorise so can even run Xcode app unconsciously!
