Description
Xcode offers all the tools you need to craft great apps for iPhone, iPad, Apple TV, Apple Watch, Apple Vision Pro, and Mac. It enables a unified workflow that spans from the earliest stages of app development to testing, debugging, optimization, and app distribution to testers and users. And with the Swift programming language, Xcode makes developing apps easy and fun.
Xcode includes a world-class code editor with an on-device machine learning model trained for Swift and Apple SDKs, a built-in preview tool that shows the UI of your app as you modify code, and a powerful debugger with conditional breakpoints.
Xcode also includes companion tools to help you rapidly prototype and test your app. Simulator enables rapid prototyping and testing your app in a simulated environment when a real device isn’t available. Instruments helps you profile and analyze your app, improve performance, and investigate system resource usage. And you can use Reality Composer Pro to create 3D content, train custom machine learning models with Create ML, and identify potential accessibility issues with Accessibility Inspector.
To test or run applications on an Apple device, all you need is a free Apple ID. To submit your apps to the App Store you must be a member of the Apple Developer Program. Some features may require Internet access and may not be available for all regions or on all Apple devices.

Ratings and Reviews
It has many bugs
In the grand scheme things are working, but tiny bugs make life more annoying for devs.
Where is the refactoring?
Need more CPU cycles in comparison XCODE 8 (heating)
When you compile / start the simulator in XCODE 9, it is absolutely using more CPU power in comparison with XCODE 8. The fan of my MacBook pro (Mid 2015 (2,5G i7 / 16G RAM) is verry often making a lot of noice, that was not the case with XCODE 8… (the same projects). Conversion from swift3 into swift 4 was going smoothly
Impossible to install
31Gb of free space on my hard drive and it still isn't enough. And once you manage to start the download, it takes forever and stalls frequently.
If you want to see how much respect Apple has for its developers, you don't need to look further than this.
