The easiest way to install the SDK is via Swift Package Manager.

1. Open Xcode > File > Add packages...
2. Add the following package URL:

https://github.com/parse-community/Parse-SDK-iOS-OSX

3. Add package
4. Choose the submodules you want to install

Take a look at the publicdocumentation &API and start building.

Dowload the compiled builds from the asset section in thereleases page.

If you want to manually compile the SDK, clone it locally, and run the following commands in the root directory of the repository:

# To pull in extra dependencies (Bolts and OCMock)git submodule update --init --recursive# To install bundlergem install bundler# To install all the gems via bundlerbundle install# Build & Package the Frameworksbundle exec rake package:frameworks

Compiled frameworks will be in multiple archives inside thebuild/release folder:

• Parse-iOS.zip
• Parse-macOS.zip
• Parse-tvOS.zip
• Parse-watchOS.zip
• ParseFacebookUtils-iOS.zip
• ParseFacebookUtils-tvOS.zip
• ParseTwitterUtils-iOS.zip
• ParseUI.zip

You can also include parse as a subproject inside of your application if you'd prefer, although we do not recommend this, as it will increase your indexing time significantly. To do so, just drag and drop the Parse.xcodeproj file into your workspace. Note that unit tests will be unavailable if you use Parse like this, as OCMock will be unable to be found.

We want to make contributing to this project as easy and transparent as possible. Please refer to theContribution Guidelines.

We use the following libraries as dependencies inside of Parse:

• Bolts, for task management.
• OCMock, for unit testing.
