How To Install a Cocoapod

Quick little blog post here on how to install a Cocoapod into an Xcode project. This is sort of for my own personal reference because I haven’t memorized how to do this yet, but if you need a more in depth tutorial check out How to Install a CocoaPod by Sean Allen.
First, enter a few terminal commands:

$ cd Desktop/SwiftPlayground/MySuperSweetXcodeProject
$ pod init
$ open -a Xcode Podfile


Next, edit (and save) your Podfile:

# Uncomment the next line to define a global platform for your project
# platform :ios, '9.0'
target 'MySuperSweetXcodeProject' do
  # Comment the next line if you're not using Swift and don't want to use dynamic frameworks
  use_frameworks!
  # *** ADD YOUR POD ON THE LINE BELOW ***
  pod 'MySuperSweetCocoaPod'
end


Last, run one final terminal command:

$ pod install
