This is also very important part inside Xcode for selecting our project type. We need to choose our project according to types of OS. There are five types of options available on the top side:
Now we are choosing iOS platform for development and creating very basic project with the single view application option:
Then we need to give Product Name, this will represent your Bundle name and application name.
Application name you can change later as per your requirements. Then we need to click "Create" and after that your screen will look like this one below:
Inside this class you can see the file name is ViewController.swift and inside the class the name is also ViewController which is inheritance by the UIViewController super class and finally we're creating our first variable which name is myString of the type 'String'. Add the following under 'super.viewDidLoad()'
let myString = "Hello, World!"
We are going to print the content of this variable. First, select your simulator type at the top left hand side of the screen and then click on the "Run" button.
After that your output will be shown on terminal which is on bottom right hand side. Congratulations, This is your first Hello World program inside Xcode.
