Developer Tools

The Developer Tools are a collection of utilities mainly designed for developer use, hence its name. It is included with every copy of Mac OS X, as well as with all new Macintosh computers, either on CD or on the hard drive. Beginning with XCode 4, XCode became available through the App Store instead of bundled with the OS or Mac hardware. In 2015, all versions are still also available via the Apple Developer website.
