title: Can I build a static library for iOS without using the Xcode IDE?
body: <p>I can't handle the Xcode IDE for this particular project anymore! </p>
  
  <p>I have a simple C project I want to build into a static library for iOS, and I don't want to use the Xcode IDE. </p>
  
  <p>I'm familiar with <code>xcodebuild</code> but my understanding is that I'd first need to create an Xcode project to use it - and simply being able to build the project on the command line isn't my goal. </p>
  
  <p>I want a standard make-style build process for this project but can't seem to find any information about doing such a thing. It seems like I can't. Is that true?</p>
