Install XCode on MacOS 10.15 Catalina

Question

I'm getting an error where I can't install XCode because my MacOS version is 10.15 when the requirement is version 11 or higher.

I don't want to upgrade my mac version because this is a company laptop so my other development tools might get affected.

How do I create a workaround for this?

Answer 1

You can download all versions of Xcode from this site

Answer 2

The latest version of Xcode you can run on Catalina (10.15.4) is Xcode 12.4 and Command Line Tools 12.4.

You can download older versions of Xcode and the Command Line Tools from Apples developer site. https://developer.apple.com/download/all/?q=xcode
