How to set a Mac Machine up for mobile development.

Ambition: Rich the most popular devices on iOS and Android platforms.

Matter of fact:

  • Modern Xcode IDE doesn't contain SDK for early apple devices.
  • Supporting a wide range of iOS devices requires having different versions of Xcode IDE and in some cases macOS.

One way:

macHD Volume 1 > Install macOS High Sierra (10.13.6) with Xcode 10.1 and Android Studio Dolphin.

macHD Volume 2 > Install macOS Monteray (12.6) with Xcode 13.4.1.

Steps:

  1. Backup data.
  2. Download macOS High Sierra installer.
  3. Create a bootable USB for macOS High Sierra.
  4. Run a macOS from a bootable USB with macOS High Sierra.
  5. Erase mac HD and create mac HD volume for macOS High Sierra.
  6. Install macOS High Sierra.
  7. Create another HD volume on macOS High Sierra for macOS Monteray.
  8. Install macOS Monteray choosing created HD volume.
  9. Set start up HD volume.
