What is RefactorKit?
RefactorKit is an intelligent code analysis tool designed for macOS developers working with Swift, SwiftUI, UIKit, and Objective-C. It performs detailed static analysis to identify code smells, anti-patterns, and complexity issues, offering actionable refactoring recommendations. The tool supports 34+ anti-patterns and analyzes 69+ components, providing deep insights into your codebase.
With parallel processing and caching, RefactorKit delivers analysis 5-10x faster than traditional methods, handling large projects in seconds. It also offers educational insights to help developers understand best practices and prevent future issues. Available as a free tier with basic features and Pro plans with advanced analysis, HTML/JSON export, and CI/CD integration.
