+1, cocoapods is really great and solves 99% of the issues.

EDIT: Issues I had with integrating third party libs into projects as dependencies in the past, not issues in regards to the blog post.

You might want to read the blog post again: CocoaPods does NOT solve the mentioned issues or provides the system that should be made available for developers as it exists on OS X.

Sorry, you're right, but still mean my own issues with dealing with third party libraries, it does help out quickly adding something so I could get to use it.

Except for all the issues that the article goes into great detail describing, and not without cost. CocoaPods is even mentioned in there, at the very end.

Apple needs to fix this before they've shamelessly let it sit for an entire decade. CocoaPods is just a partial band-aid.
