What tools have you used for dependency management in projects?

For managing dependencies in iOS projects, the following tools are often used:

• CocoaPods — a popular dependency manager that uses a Podfile to describe libraries.
• Carthage — a lighter-weight manager that builds dependencies as separate frameworks.
• Swift Package Manager (SPM) — a built-in Swift tool for managing packages, integrated with Xcode.

Example of using CocoaPods:

1. Create a Podfile describing dependencies.
2. Run the command pod install.
3. Open the generated .xcworkspace file in Xcode.

Each of these tools helps automate the downloading, updating, and integration of third-party libraries into the project.
