I hate xcode even after tons of customizations, commonly shortcuts. Navigation and search is more painfull to me. currently im working with intellij AppCode and only use xcode for ui editings.

Might try to convince my boss to try AppCode, I've heard good things.

Can you create archives, validate them, and so on with it? or is Xcode still needed?

i'm not sure about creating archive (because we use third party build systems) but for working with storyboards or xib files , you need to use Xcode.
