A great development tool for Apple applications. It has a convenient code editor, debugger, and interface designer. Integration with Swift makes it easier to create applications for iOS, macOS, watchOS, and tvOS

Xcode is an essential app for developers working within the Apple ecosystem. However, Xcode’s unique indexing and file management system rely not only on the folder data itself but also on accumulating data within the Xcode app’s internal storage. While this approach can provide convenience for developers, it often leads to discomfort when it comes to the amount of system storage consumed by this data.

I'm using it for IOS development and I'm happy with most of the features, but I wish it was more friendly (what the hell do you want me to do with the preferences?) Also, I can't ignore the risk of bugs in every new version. It's very brave of your team to be the first to release a version.

If you don't update it, you can't use it, so I reluctantly update it with a heavy heart, but seriously... it's so incredibly slow that it feels like my patience is going to burst!

Essential for iOS and macOS app development. Its IDE is robust and user-friendly. Great for coding, debugging, and testing applications. And it simplifies the creation of high-quality Apple apps.
