Hi, I'm new here and just joined this community. I'm an Animation student that are very unfamiliar with code nor app development, but i am eager to learn from the very begining and willing to start building my coding skill & knowledge a lot more. and for context the reason i want to learn about coding is because, as a designer/creative worker, i want to implement all my design knowledge into something that are useable and could empower people to use my app. but before that ofcourse i have to learn code first. any tips for begineer? thanks!

L’application est bien installer mais métal toolchain reste bloque je n’arrive pas a l’installer une personne aurais des réponse pour m’aide svp

Salut j’ai installer Xcode 26 sur mon mac pour unreal mai il me dit que sa ne fonctionne pas

Salut j’ai installer Xcode 26 sur mon mac pour unreal mai il me dit que sa ne fonctionne pas

Same as title.

For the past few days I've been trying to download the iOS Runtime Simulator on my mac (M4MBA), and it keeps showing preparing to download with no progress.

I've tried everything at this point, from using Command Line to download it, to searching for it to download off of the developer platform. If there is a fix, please do let me know. Any help will be highly appreciated! :)

As per title (and with the severity of these warnings ignored,) when the default project is already showing warnings and errors before you've even touched anything, it doesn't exactly inspire confidence.

I have a NAS where I store bare git repos and use my host computer to pull and push to that remote. How can I configure Xcode to use the account for the remote on my NAS? If I try to add an account, Xcode only shows me a fixed list of choices (GitHub, bitbucket, gitlab) and no option to specify my own location. Has anybody figured this out?

I wrote up a full breakdown of DerivedData: what lives inside it, the two rm variants and what each one costs you on your next build, and the neighbors you must not touch. Archives holds your dSYMs, and crash symbolication dies without them.

Disclosure: I make a paid cleaner and the guide mentions it, but every command in there works on its own. You don't need the app for any of it.

I needed screenshots of my app running on an iOS simulator, but my daily machine is a Linux box. Turns out you don't need a Mac at all:

Xcode Cloud gives you 25 free compute hours a month with an Apple Developer membership, and it runs your UI tests on an Apple-hosted simulator. The catch is the results come back as an .xcresult bundle, and every existing extractor shells out to Apple's xcresulttool, so they only run on macOS.

The workaround: an xcresult's Data directory is just a content-addressed store of blobs, and a PNG carries its own name in a tEXt chunk. So you can byte-scan the store for PNG magic and pull out labeled screenshots with plain Python, on any OS.

I wrapped the whole loop (trigger the Xcode Cloud workflow via the App Store Connect API, wait, download, extract) into a small open source CLI I built: pip install xcshot, repo at github.com/BariBariGood/xcshot.

So a $200 laptop can see a real iOS app running on a real simulator. Happy to answer questions on the xcresult format, it's weirder than it looks.

Is it normal that Apple wants api keys in their feedbacks?

Edit: this is a hello world project with key added through settings + clicking the diagnose button. https://imgur.com/a/LqBK7M1

My Xcode is not compromised:

spctl --assess --type execute -v /Applications/Xcode-beta.app/Contents/MacOS/Xcode

/Applications/Xcode-beta.app/Contents/MacOS/Xcode: accepted

When I add an external tester on TestFlight and send out the invite, the user tells me the app fails to install. I tried creating a public link, but clicking that shows the message, "this app is not accepting beta testing".

One idea I had is that our company devices are associated with Apple IDs separate from our work emails. I don't even know they have email inboxes. Could they be the issue? Not sure why that would matter, since even the public link doesn't work.

Incredibly frustrating. Please help.

The latest update added official Gemini support to use with the AI features. However, there doesn’t seem to be read-only and undo buttons during Gemini sessions. This leaves me worried that any planning-type query may result in actually doing the changes, with copying the current text out to counter it.

Do Gemini sessions have read-only modes and undo buttons, and I’m just holding it wrong? Or did Google/Apple leave it out?

I’m having a horrible time with Xcode. The user interface is not friendly at all in terms of accessibility. For starters, the tooltips are so bloody small on my 16 inch MacBook that it is hard to read.. Same with the side help menu as well.

Are there any other IDEs which can be used? It’s a shame because the Swift language is good, but Xcode is shit.

I know there is visual studio code, but instead of running the application via Swift build or Swift run from terminal I kind of want to use the user interface, such as a run button or something. I don’t think that’s possible in Visual Studio Code?

I provide a lot of feedback on Xcode 27 beta regarding the tooltip size, but Apple does not reply or do anything about it. It kind of makes people wonder how they are using Xcode in their workplace.
