        import Cocoa
import SpriteKit
import PlaygroundSupport
let view:SKView = SKView(frame: CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: 1024, height: 768))
let scene:SKScene = SKScene(size: CGSize(width: 1024, height: 768))
scene.scaleMode = SKSceneScaleMode.aspectFit
view.presentScene(scene)
view.showsFPS = true
let redBox:SKSpriteNode = SKSpriteNode(color: SKColor.red, size: CGSize.init(width: 300, height: 300))
redBox.position = CGPoint(x: 512, y: 384)
redBox.run(SKAction.repeatForever(SKAction.rotate(byAngle: 6, duration: 2)))
scene.addChild(redBox)
PlaygroundPage.current.liveView = view
PlaygroundPage.current.needsIndefiniteExecution = true

         

        I have the following code but it doesn't display the spinning red square as expected.  What do I do?

          Did you show the assistant editor (View > Assistant Editor > Show Assistant Editor)?  I pasted your code into a playground (OS X 10.11.6, Xcode 8.0b6, macOS playground) and I got a spinning red square once I showed that.

              I showed the assistant editor but the Xcode Playground got into an infinite loop with the running command and never displayed the spinning red box with Xcode 8.0b6 and OS X 10.12 Beta (16A313a).  How can I solve this problem?  Is there a way to find out what is happening with Playgrounds?  It seems very flaky on my machine.

                  I don’t have any suggestions here, alas.  I did what you did and it worked just fine.

                      I turned on the issues log in Xcode 8 GM Seed Playgrounds and this is output I got:

                      Can someone parse this and make sense of this because I don't get a rotating red square?

                  I just read your complaint to the Swift mailing list, and was so free to test your code in the final version of Xcode 8, and I could see the turning square.
