The Xcode Organizer, shown in Figure 10.1, appears in a separate window and contains an “and the rest…” col-
lection of miscellaneous features. The Organizer is used for project and device management, and it includes a
browser for the Xcode documentation library.
To display the Organizer, click the file-cabinet icon, at the right of the icon bar at the top of the Xcode editor win-
dow. The Organizer appears in a separate window that isn't integrated with the main editor.
You can use the Organizer's features to manage:
Provisioning certificates
Development devices
Code repositories
Active projects
The window uses the standard OS X layout. To select the main features, click the icons at the top. Sub-features
appear in groups at the left. The active area fills the rest of the screen. Some features include a separate toolbar at
the bottom of the screen, with icons for specific options. Because the Organizer is a grab bag of miscellaneous un-
related options, the UI of each page is different.
CROSS-REFERENCE
The Organizer includes the Documentation Browser, which is described in Chapter 6. The Repository and Snapshot
features are described in Chapter 14. Provisioning is described in more detail in Chapter 11. This chapter introduces
the remaining features that aren't discussed elsewhere.
