17.1 Starting Xcode 12
As with all the examples in this book, the development of our example will take place within the Xcode 12.2 development environment. If you have not already installed this tool together with the latest iOS SDK refer first to the “Installing Xcode 12 and the iOS 14 SDK” chapter of this book. Assuming the installation is complete, launch Xcode either by clicking on the icon on the dock (assuming you created one) or use the macOS Finder to locate Xcode in the Applications folder of your system.
When launched for the first time, and until you turn off the Show this window when Xcode launches toggle, the screen illustrated in Figure 17-1 will appear by default:

If you do not see this window, simply select the Window -> Welcome to Xcode menu option to display it. From within this window, click on the option to Create a new Xcode project.
