        • Ask for path?
      • Set default project in cache?
        • Cache location local directory
      • When asking projects complete file path
      • Ask if it should default
        • If user says no don't ask again for session (or project (cache))

      • Take class prefix from project file (cache it)
        • clear cache command
    • Ask for the superclass
      • Complete with a list of classes
    • Ask for save location path

          • Setting for auto create
    • Add .h and .m file to folder path

  • Integration

    • Work alongside b4winckler/vim-objc for fixed indentation
    • Work with vim-endwise for auto insert closing block keywords
    • Work with syntastic for warnings
      • Pull warnings into cache from project settings
      • Pull pch settings for target
      • Pull module settings for target
    • Work with clangcomplete for completion with cached compiler options
    • Tagbar objc settings

  • Running projects

    • Build and run based off current project settings for devices etc
    • Attempt to integrate debugger similar to Shougo/vimshell.vim
      • Small quixfix style window for commands
    • Breakpoints
      • Add with xcproj?

  • Styling

    • Copy the space/tab settings from the project

  • Use NERDTree like interface for showing groups from the xcodeproject. Depending on where the focused file is in that group create the new files there.
