Parameters

name: The name of the target.
dependencies: The dependencies of the target. A dependency can be another target in the package or a product from a package dependency.
path: The custom path for the target. By default, Swift Package Manager requires a target’s sources to reside at predefined search paths; for example, [PackageRoot]/Sources/[TargetName]. Don’t escape the package root; for example, values like ../Foo or /Foo are invalid.
exclude: A list of paths to files or directories that Swift Package Manager shouldn’t consider to be source or resource files. A path is relative to the target’s directory. This parameter has precedence over the sources parameter.
sources: An explicit list of source files. If you provide a path to a directory, Swift Package Manager searches for valid source files recursively.
resources: An explicit list of resources files.
publicHeadersPath: The directory that contains public headers of a C-family library target.
packageAccess: Allows package symbols from other targets in the package.
cSettings: The C settings for this target.
cxxSettings: The C++ settings for this target.
swiftSettings: The Swift settings for this target.
linkerSettings: The linker settings for this target.
plugins: The plug-ins used by this target

An executable target can contain either Swift or C-family source files, but not both. It contains code that is built as an executable module for use as the main target of an executable product. The target is expected to either have a source file named main.swift, main.m, main.c, or main.cpp, or a source file that contains the @main keyword.
