To lint dependency packages in Swift, you can use the Swift Package Manager (SPM). SPM is a tool for managing Swift packages, and it can be invoked from the command line to build, test, and run your code. You can also work on a Swift package using Xcode or other editors like Visual Studio Code.

Here are some steps you can follow to lint your dependency packages:

  1. Build the Package: Use the swift build command to build your package. This will compile the code and check for any errors or warnings.
  2. Run Tests: Use the swift test command to run the tests associated with your package. This will help ensure that your code is functioning as expected.
  3. Use Xcode: If you are using Xcode, you can open your Swift package in Xcode and use its built-in tools to lint and test your code. Xcode provides a more visual approach to managing and linting your packages.
