AppCode 2016.3.1 for Mac
Mac Developer ToolsAppCode was JetBrains' dedicated IDE for iOS and macOS development, built on the IntelliJ platform. It worked directly with Xcode projects and offered smarter code completion, powerful refactorings, and deep code analysis for Swift, Objective-C, C, and C++, which made it a favourite second editor for many Apple-platform developers. Version 2016.3.1 is an old release from that era, suited only to equally old Xcode versions and projects.
Honesty matters here: JetBrains discontinued AppCode. With the 2022.3 release on 14 December 2022, the company ended sales and stopped renewing subscriptions, and technical support for remaining users ended in December 2023. You can no longer buy AppCode, and it receives no updates for current Xcode or Swift versions. The JetBrains product page remains online for reference, but new developers should use Apple's free Xcode or a currently supported JetBrains IDE instead.

Can I still buy AppCode?
No. JetBrains ended AppCode sales on 14 December 2022 and no longer sells or renews licences. Any site offering new AppCode licences or cracked copies should be avoided.
What should I use instead?
Apple's Xcode is free and fully current. Developers who like JetBrains tools can look at CLion for C and C++ work, while Swift development is best handled in Xcode itself.
