🚀 Quick Start

Add Apollo iOS to your dependencies list

dependencies: [
    .package(
        url: "https://github.com/apollographql/apollo-ios.git",
        .upToNextMajor(from: "2.0.0")
    ),
],

Link the Apollo product to your package target

Any targets in your application that will use ApolloClient need to have a dependency on the Apollo product.

.target(
    name: "MyApp",
    dependencies: [
        .product(name: "Apollo", package: "apollo-ios"),
    ]
)

Note: Targets that only use Apollo's generated models don't need to be linked to the Apollo product.
