I am working in OSX 10.8.5 on a MacBook Pro, with Xcode 5.1.1. I am moving to Yosemite in 2 weeks and want to upgrade to Xcode 7. I know I can simply delete the current (5.1.1) Xcode app. Are there any other files downloaded with Xcode? If so, where might they be and should they be deleted?


Thank you.

In ~/Library/Developer, there's documentation, archives, data storage for the Simulators, and more. You don't need to modify any of that right now, but if there's any outdated documentation or obsolete Simulators left behind after you update, you can delete those and free up several gigabytes.
