I am using xcode 13.1 for app development so far, i now want to update my xcode but i don't have enough storage in my macbook to update.

I tried updating but i don't have enough storage. can i uninstall and re install xcode and work normally without any issues?

If you don’t have enough storage to update, I’d recommend getting a large external drive. Don’t even start using tricks to get a bit more memory out of it.

CodePudding user response：

Yes, it is safe. XCode is just the Integrated Development Environment (IDE) used primarily by Mac developers. This just means it is the place you write code. You would be able to use a simple plain text editor as well, even the notes app.

Although, I would recommend trying to free up some space instead. This post has some good information and references other posts to check.
