I want to learn more about xcode. I don't use a Mac, but xcode is often referenced in books / documentation that I read. I think it is used to develop apps for Apple products, so I want to learn more about it.
Xcode enables you to develop, test, and distribute apps for all Apple platforms. Code and design your apps faster with predictive code completion, interactive previews, and live animations. Use Git staging to craft your next commit without leaving your code. Explore and diagnose your test results with redesigned test reports with video recording. And start deploying seamlessly to TestFlight and the App Store from Xcode Cloud.
Xcode is available on the Mac Apple Store, with downloadable simulator runtimes for all platforms.
Xcode is Apple's IDE for macOS, used to develop software for macOS, iOS, iPadOS, watchOS, tvOS, and visionOS. It was initially released in late 2003; the latest stable release is version 16, released on September 16, 2024, and is available free of charge via the Mac App Store and the Apple Developer website. You can download preview releases and prior versions of the suite through the Apple Developer site. Xcode can build fat binary (universal binary) files containing code for multiple architecture with the Mach-O format. Using the iOS SDK, tvOS SDK, and watchOS SDK, Xcode can also be used to compile and debug applications for iOS, iPadOS, tvOS, and watchOS.
