Description

it makes no sense that we have to run the ios simulator every time to write our otherwise pure swift code. it'll be nice to have a test target setup so we're running this purely in swift or at least make these faster by not requiring an emulator to be spun every time.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate how to create a unit test target that runs on macOS or without the iOS simulator. Look into setting up a Swift Package Manager test target or using XCTest with a macOS scheme.
