In either case, you’re taken to the OS X Yosemite page where you can download Yosemite for free. Click the appropriate button to download it and then enter your Apple ID and password when prompted. The installer will start downloading and be saved to the Applications folder at the root level of your hard drive.
In the top toolbar at the left side you should see the words "Swift iPhone App". Next to it, there should be some more text that either says just "iOS Device" or an actual device like iPhone 6, iPhone 5, etc. Click this dropdown and select iPhone 6.
The Yosemite license allows you to install that single copy on multiple computers. Once the download is complete the installer will launch and display the Install OS X window, which contains a Continue button. Click that button and you’ll be asked to agree to the license agreement twice.
Just to get the official source in here, the Xcode 6 Beta 1 Release Notes state:
Xcode 6 Beta requires a Mac running OS X version 10.9.3 (or later) or 10.10.
And Xcode 6 comes bundled with Swift.
