It lets us create iOS applications or iPadOS applications or macOS applications and in a complete environment, that's what we're going to be installing in our computer. And just design the app, write the app, whatever we need to do to develop an iOS application. So, what is Xcode? XCode is actually an IDE, an integrated development environment, which means that it provides us with every tool to develop right codes or test our codes on a simulator, like a real iPhone simulator. So, this is the thing that we're going to download and run in our computer. So, when you go to develop tab, you can see the development-related news and development-related tools. All you have to do, you can just find this develop tab over here. But maybe when you come over here you can see different things, it doesn't matter. So, for example, when I come over here I can see the App Clips, widgets, Big Sur, iOS 14, everything like that. Because as I said before, this is the official site for the developers and they actually release the news, release the new tools and every documentation or every information that you need to know about Apple or iOS development. So, if you come over here, of course, you will see some different images, different news. So, if you come over here and developer is spelled like this,. So, this is the official website for the developer of Apple. And I'm going to show you where to get it. So, first of all, we need to install only one tool actually and it's called Xcode. But if you have a MacBook or any computer that runs macOS then you're ready to go. So, if you don't have a macOS, please Google it and try to figure out. Like, if you see mine, I can run Windows, I can run Linux on my computer because they are actually available officially, but macOS is not officially available. So, VirtualBox is a tool that lets you run the virtual machines on your computer. So, let me show you how VirtualBox is spelled.
So, all you have to do is figure out how to work with the Apple or macOS images in your VirtualBox. But it is possible if you Google it, I believe you can find a solution. But unfortunately, I cannot show you how to run a macOS virtually on your computer because Apple officially does not share this operating system images to run on the virtual devices. Of course, you can find a way to run macOS virtually.
So, if you don't have a MacBook or any device like a MacBook computer or Mac computer that runs macOS, maybe you have Windows or Linux. And by the way, you need macOS to develop iOS applications. In order to do that, we're going to need some of the tools that are provided by the Apple, and they are free tools by the way, but we need to install them and know how to work with them on our MacBook. If you don’t want to see it again, remove the checkmark for the Show this window when Xcode launches check box.Hi, before we dive into the coding section of this course, first of all, we're going to have to make sure that our computer is capable of running iOS or Swift codes. When you launch Xcode for the very first time, you will be greeted with this welcome window. OK, you’ve downloaded and installed Xcode on your computer. That way, you’ll always have easy access to Xcode. Once Launchpad have completed installation of Xcode in the Applications folder, locate its icon using Finder, then drag and drop it on the Dock. This will take some time because Xcode is a big file, so be patient. Once you are in the App Store, click the Install link to start downloading the latest version of Xcode on your Mac computer via the Launchpad application.
Next click the “View in Mac App Store” link shown in the right image below. Scroll down the iOS Developer Center page, then click the download link shown in the left image below. Sign in to the iOS Developer Center, then click the iOS link.
Once there, you can register as an apple developer-it’s free or sign in using your existing apple id. By the way Xcode is just one application of Apple’s Software Development Kit (SDK) you will use to develop apps that runs on a device.īefore you can download and install a free copy of the current version of the iOS SDK, you’ll have to first visit the Apple Developer website. Before you can create applications that run on these hand-held devices shown in the image below, you’ll have to get your hands on a free copy of Xcode from Apple’s website.
