With Xcode you can work inside one window, split windows, and even compare options side by side. Source and project code can be shared across both platforms.

MacOS app developer made simple and easy

Design great apps on either Mac, iPad, or iPhone using Xcode.

MacOS or iOS developers need look no further than the Xcode developer tool to design great apps. 

Xcode featuresSwift UI, which offers up its own syntax. Easy to read and write, Swift UI will help keep your apps smaller and download faster by using less code.

Updated functionality now lets you code, test and debug all inside one window. Debugging is done via the Xcode IDE. This added plus can identify errors in syntax and logic, and often fix the code for you.

Newly introduced dark mode is built into Xcode. Interface builder allows you to switch between light and dark modes, or even view them side by side.

The drag and drop function helps you to make changes to visual UI elements, quickly and easily. For developers who prefer multiple editing panes, Xcode provides you with total control of your work area. You can view your design changes instantly in another window.

Use the devices window to simulate other environments. If your users have slow networks or run in extreme heat, you can test those conditions out before releasing your app. For ease of use, source and project code can be shared by Mac and iPad, allowing you to convert existing iPad apps into Mac apps. The changes will take effect across both platforms.

Where can you run this program?

You can run Xcode on OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion or iOS 7 and above.

Is there a better alternative?

With its solid functionality, multiple panes, and shared source code, there is no need to look at any alternatives when choosing an app development tool.

App development tools have come a long way. Xcode is the perfect tool for experienced developers. To be able to code, test, and debug inside the same window, this download will certainly save development time.

Should you download it?

Yes. You won't need another developer tool once you install Xcode. You can share code across OS or iOS.
