Add custom framework to Standard Library in Xcode

Question

I've looked everywhere and no article gives me exactly the solution I'm looking for.

Is there a way to "install" a custom framework into Xcode? For example, let's say I've created a framework called 'MyAwesomeFramework' which is really reusable (for example contains a lot of useful UIView extensions). Now what I want to do is be able to just create any new project and type import MyAwesomeFramework to use it, instead of having to add the respective Xcode Project to the project I want to use it in.

There are a few different options. You can manually add them via drag and drop or use one of many framework managers such as Carthage or Cocoapods.

Whatever method you choose has a few steps and can be a bit daunting initially so I’d recommend following a tutorial of some sort(I used YouTube). If done correctly you will be able to just import like you would do any other library.

Thanks for the answer. However, I know how to use CocoaPods/Carthage and that is not quite what I wanted. I ended up manually add it via drag-and-drop

I would like to test your recommendation "You can manually add them via drag and drop", but from where? I can't locate my "framework binary". It shows only up, when I add the whole framework project into the app project, where it should be used. But how to add the framework binary only?
