Xcode is Apple's integrated development environment (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 15, released on September 18, 2023, and is available free of charge via the Mac App Store and the Apple Developer website.[4] Registered developers can also download preview releases and prior versions of the suite through the Apple Developer website.[5] Xcode includes command-line tools that enable UNIX-style development via the Terminal app in macOS.[6] They can also be downloaded and installed without the GUI.
Before Xcode, Apple offered developers Project Builder and Interface Builder to develop Mac OS X applications.
