How to use Xcode 13 in macOS Ventura?

I have installed macOS Ventura – the latest version of macOS – and I would like to have a stable version of Xcode (e.g. 13.4.1) running. However, it says "The version of Xcode installed on this Mac is not compatible with macOS Ventura."

Is there any way to run Xcode on Ventura?

Xcode 14 is required by macOS Ventura. But if, in case you want to use your old version of Xcode (e.g Xcode 13), you can launch it directly from the finder or from the terminal.

To open in finder navigate to:

Applications Folder > Find Xcode App > Right click on the app and click on Show Package Contents > Open Contents > Open MacOS > and launch Xcode.

Or

Run the following command in the terminal:

open /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/MacOS/Xcode.

Update:

The same procedure can be followed to use Xcode 14 in macOS Sonoma.
