You can't install Xcode on your PC. Even on Linux. Even though MacOS and Linux are somewhat similar. MacOS derives from BSD Mach Unix Kernel. And Linux have it's own kernel. Mac and Linux are two different operating system. Even the command base are not similar. But functionality is the same. Kali Linux is a pentesting linux operating system. Mostly the compilers are running base on linux not on a mac. If you still need to use Xcode. You certainly you need to use a mac.

Funny, how top answer here is incorrect. although Xcode is proprietary software, you can run it on Linux. There are couple good articles online briefly explaining how to run Xcode on Linux. this forum is for admins who most likely will delete this comment. but that won’t stop correct answers from propagating.
