I am able to download the current versions of Xcode and other resources from the Apple Developer Center(s), but where can I download older versions?
Specifically, I am looking for recent older Xcode
Older versions of Xcode can be found by logging into the Apple Developer Downloads page and searching for the version of Xcode you need.
The current release of Xcode is available as a free download from the Mac App Store. The Mac App Store will notify you when an update is available or you can have macOS update automatically as it becomes available. The latest beta version and previous versions of Xcode can be downloaded from the Downloads page.
Open the App Store on your mac. Sign in. Search for Xcode. Click install or update.
Accepted Reply. Xcode/Apple's IDE requires macOS. Feel free to file a feature request via the bug reporter link, below right, for things you'd like to see in the future.
2021 Update
https://developer.apple.com/download/all/?q=xcode
It requires signing in with a free Apple Developer account.
The following link filters for "Xcode" in the Apple Developer Center downloads repository:
https://developer.apple.com/download/more/?name=Xcode
This link seems fairly future-proof?
The links have changed since the accepted answer to this question was written; I could not find a link to "Downloads" after clicking "Resources".
Previously, this URL was used:
https://developer.apple.com/downloads/index.action?name=Xcode
