Clear Xcode Derived Data

$ rm -rf ~/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData

try on your machine

This command is used to remove the "DerivedData" directory within the path "~/Library/Developer/Xcode/". Here's a breakdown of what each part of the command does:

rm: This is the command used to remove (delete) files and directories.
-rf: These are options for the "rm" command:
- -r stands for "recursive" and is used to delete directories and their contents.
- -f stands for "force" and is used to prevent the command from asking for confirmation before deleting.
~/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData: This is the path to the "DerivedData" directory within the user's Library folder.

So when this command is executed, it recursively deletes the "DerivedData" directory and all its contents without asking for confirmation.

This explanation was created by an AI. In most cases those are correct. But please always be careful and never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
