On: Introducing Swift

[Osmium]

Question: It sounds like the Xcode 6 beta is available on the dev center but I can't find it. Do you have to be a paying developer to have access to it, or does anyone know if it's going to be made available for free to (unpaid) registered developers?

[basisword → Osmium]

Pre-release software is usually for paying devs only. Xcode is listed under the iOS 8 beta tab which is hidden to non-paying devs.

To access the Xcode 6 beta you must be a registered developer. Non-beta releases of Xcode are free to all.

[jaydz → Osmium]

I can't think of a reason why they wouldn't allow unpaid devs to play with Swift.

[Huperniketes → jaydz]

To get more devs to pay.
