• Swift 6+
• iOS 16+ deployment target

Clone the Repository

git clone https://github.com/imgly/starterkit-design-editor-ios.git
cd starterkit-design-editor-ios

Open in Xcode

open StarterKit-DesignEditor.xcodeproj

Xcode will resolve the Swift Package dependencies automatically. Select an iOS Simulator or device and press Run (Cmd+R).

Configuration

License Key

Add your CE.SDK license key in StarterKit-DesignEditor/Secrets.swift:

let secrets = Secrets(

Without a license key, the editor runs in evaluation mode with a watermark.

The starter kit files in StarterKit/ demonstrate how to customize the editor:

• Configuration — DesignEditorConfiguration.swift
• Callbacks — callbacks/ (onCreate, onExport)
• Components — components/ (navigation bar, dock, inspector bar, canvas menu)
