After mourning the death of AppCode and XVim, and being highly frustrated with Xcode 13's Vim mode, I started working on a very different approach: a macOS app integrating Neovim in Xcode. The first version is promising and I'm already using it for my daily work.
Come check it out: ShadowVim
Highlights
This is not a Vim emulation, but real Neovim with macros, ., Ex commands, etc.
Vim plugins (without UI) work out of the box. Hello vim-surround, argtextobj.vim and whatnot.
Add key mappings to trigger native Xcode features from Neovim (e.g. "Jump to Definition" on gd).

@openingapps Just download the latest version from https://github.com/mickael-menu/ShadowVim/releases, run the ShadowVim.app file and you're good to go. The details on the repo are for customizing the configuration.
