Got it.
Meanwhile, also supporting emacs/vim through something like ctags would be great. Symbols' list and jump-to-definition would suffice initially.
Thanks.

One of our near-term goals for the Package Manager is to move to a library-based architecture to allow for IDE integration; you can read about this goal at https://github.com/apple/swift-package-manager/blob/master/Documentation/PackageManagerCommunityProposal.md#library-based-architecture. We are planning to add great support for the Package Manager to Xcode. As Xcode is not part of the open source release, we don't plan to pre-announce a timeline or specific details of that Xcode support until we're ready to provide a beta version of Xcode that has it. We understand that this support is very important to our developer community.
