What is the actual advantage of AppCode these days? (Just purely from a user experience point of view.) When I tried it a hile back it kept switching back to XCode for UI Changes, and since the editor for obj-c didn't seem that much better than XCode (and also somewhat more sluggish), I just stopped going back to AppCode after one of these many times it sent me to XCode.

For the record: I love the other Jetbrain IDEs (i.e. RubyMine and Intellij)

Now less switching if any. UI Designer is in and we are working on Project settings (now target adding is possible in EAP).

Also AppCode has a bunch of refactorings and inspections with quick fixes that help you find problems and fix them in Alt+Enter click.

Also other (than Obj-C) languages support: C, C++, JS, XML, HTML, CSS. With all the JB's editor features on board for these languages.
