I rarely use comments when I’m coding1. I do make one exception though; using // TODO: and // FIXME: to highlight pieces of code I need to revisit at a later date.

Jeffrey Sambells wrote a post on how to flag these comments as Xcode warnings but that only applies for Objective-C. With a slight tweak, here is a run script build phase for flagging TODO: and FIXME: as warnings in a Swift project.

Here is the bash script:

echo "searching ${SRCROOT} for ${TAGS}"
