Swift Package Manager

1

Add package dependency in Xcode

  1. Open your project in Xcode
  2. Go to File → Add Package Dependencies
  3. Enter the repository URL:
https://github.com/ailtonvivaz/GlassText
  1. Select the version you want to use (latest is recommended)
  2. Click Add Package
  3. Select your target and click Add Package again
2

Verify installation

Import GlassText in any Swift file to confirm installation:
import GlassText
If the import succeeds without errors, you’re ready to go!

​
Alternative: Package.swift

If you’re building a Swift package or prefer to manage dependencies via Package.swift, add GlassText to your package dependencies:
Package.swift
// swift-tools-version: 6.2
import PackageDescription

let package = Package(
    name: "YourPackage",
    platforms: [
        .iOS(.v26),
        .macOS(.v26),
        .tvOS(.v26),
        .watchOS(.v26),
    ],
    dependencies: [
        .package(url: "https://github.com/ailtonvivaz/GlassText", from: "1.0.0")
    ],
    targets: [
        .target(
            name: "YourTarget",
            dependencies: ["GlassText"]
        )
    ]
)
Use semantic versioning to specify the version range. Using from: "1.0.0" will automatically include compatible updates while avoiding breaking changes.
