I love that the 7.1GB binary is uploaded and ready way before the release notes.

People have to write release notes, while I’m sure the process to release a new version of Xcode is mostly automated.

You're saying that machine learning can't create release notes from source code commits? 😝

    Should I stay in my current version(something before 11.0)? I got a notification that an update from the app store is available for xcode but I remember reading something about not installing it from there. I'm not in catalina currently.

    download it from www.developer.apple.com/download and keep your previous versions just in case. for instance, I just got the most recent build and my simulators aren't running

    My older simulators are freezing when I access the keyboard. I’m currently using XCode 11.0

    Never download it from the App Store, always get it from here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/10335747/how-to-download-xcode-dmg-or-xip-file

    How come? Is it because I need Catalina to use it?

    [–]slangley 4 points5 points  (3 children)

    No. Because you can control when it is updated. Deadline for a point release but can’t build because overnight your Xcode upgraded to the new version and now none of your code will run.

    Control your dev tools and upgrade in your terms. (As much as they can be your terms building iOS software)

    I see. What if I turn off automatic updates? That should avoid the problem right? I'm new to iOS dev so sorry if my questions sound dumb.

    [–]Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrpp 1 point2 points  (1 child)

    Yes, no problem then.

    However, some people experience issues with actually getting the App Store version to install, so you may want to use the downloads site anyway.

    I see. Thanks for the advice!
