Programming is the art of telling another human what one wants the computer to do. — Donald Knuth

As Robert C. Martin stated in his book Clean Code: A Handbook of Agile Software Craftsmanship,

“Clean code is code that has been taken care of. Someone has taken the time to keep it simple and orderly. They have paid appropriate attention to details. They have cared.”

Why should you care? What’s wrong with code that just works?

Because software is never written once and finished. It needs to be enhanced, fixed, maintained, usually by more than one person.

Monitoring Progress of xcodebuild

While you can not update XCode's progress bar via an external process, you can generate a progress indicator of some sort in the MacOS menu bar using status items.

For example there's an OpenSource project called BitBar which can be used to create a status item menu using any scripting language (via #! / shebang.)
