22G Xcode.app
- saagarjha 4y agoXcode is compressed on disk by default; you should generally use du -sh when measuring its size.

As a developer of both desktop and mobile apps, I discovered some time ago that I could delete most, if not all, of the Xcode simulators that I don’t use without affecting the functionality of the IDE. The software is smart enough to download additional assets when you attempt to launch one of the simulators. I believe that, by default, Xcode comes with simulators for the latest versions of iOS, iPad OS, Watch OS, and Apple TV, sometimes including two or three versions for each platform. I think this is the reason why your installation weights 22G.
