Carthage

Will AI replace Carthage and iOS dependency management engineers in 2026?

Answer:

AI will not replace iOS engineers managing Carthage dependencies in 2026. Although Swift Package Manager has largely replaced Carthage for new iOS projects, many production iOS codebases still depend on Carthage for dependency management. Skilled iOS developers who handle complex dependency graphs, resolve version conflicts, and migrate legacy Carthage configurations to Swift Package Manager remain essential in teams maintaining large iOS codebases.
