Create, Push, and Present Any View Controller in 1 LOC using Metaprogramming
Now that we have designed our APIs we can generate the code. For each view controller in our project, we are going to generate 3 functions: create, push, and present. We are going to generate code with Sourcery — a tool developed by Krzysztof Zabłocki.

Adding Union to Swift with Metaprogramming
The most popular tool for generating code in Swift is Sourcery — a tool developed by Krzysztof Zabłocki. It works like this: you provide a template file, Sourcery parses your source code and generates code based on your template and the parsed source code. Sourcery can be used as a standalone executable or embedded right into the Xcode building process as a Run Script phase. It automatically regenerates code on any changes in your template file or in the project source files.
