iOS 12 has been around for a while, but with upcoming release of iOS 16, we are ready to let this version go and rest in peace forever. The same could be said about CocoaPods - what used to be the major and most important thing on iOS for developing apps with 3rd party libraries - has been replaced by natively supported way called Swift Package Manager.

Sit tibi terra levis.

Version 4.0.0 comes with couple of breaking changes, please refer to the MIGRATION_GUIDE.md for easy transition from V3 to V4.
