Can you tell us more about how you’d like this to work? Do you want XD to export image assets and insert them directly into the correct folders/filenames in an existing Xcode project? Or do you want XD to generate Objective-C / Swift code to create a brand new Xcode project?

I don't think this feature needs more info.
It's an obvious thing users want to do: Build a prototype in XD, then export to Xcode so developers don't have to muck around with placing all the graphics and assets, and they can concentrate on functionality. So far, no apps do this natively to my knowledge. I've tried the XD Lighting Storm plug-in, and it claims to do it, sort of, but even if it worked perfectly, paying a monthly fee for it, on top of a monthly fee for XD is silly.
Adding this iOS export feature would basically wipe out the competition of other UI design apps which I will not name here. There would be no reason to invest time in anything else.
Considering this has been a request since 2016, I'm not holding my breath.
