+# swift-vt-xcframework
+
+Demonstrates consuming libghostty-vt from a Swift Package using the
+pre-built XCFramework. Creates a terminal, writes VT sequences into it,
+and formats the screen contents as plain text.
+
+This example requires the XCFramework to be built first.
+
+## Building
+
+First, build the XCFramework from the repository root:
+
+```shell-session
+zig build -Demit-lib-vt
+```
+
+Then build and run the Swift package:
+
+```shell-session
+cd example/swift-vt-xcframework
+swift build
+swift run
+```
