Custom file templates in Xcode

March 4, 2006

When you create new files in Xcode they come prepopulated a certain way. Ever wanted to customise this?
The default templates used by Xcode can be found in /Library/Application Support/Apple/Developer Tools/File Templates/. Copy the template you want to change to ~/Library/Application Support/Apple/Developer Tools/File Templates/ and change them to your heart’s content and, voilá, the next time you create a new file in Xcode it has your custom content in it.
