This is the guide to manually uninstall xcodes and alternative xcodes

Source :- https://stackoverflow.com/a/53575585/10422074

For a complete removal of Xcode 10 delete the following:

  1. /Applications/Xcode.app
  2. ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.dt.Xcode
  3. ~/Library/Developer
  4. ~/Library/MobileDevice
  5. ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.dt.Xcode.plist
  6. /Library/Preferences/com.apple.dt.Xcode.plist
  7. /System/Library/Receipts/com.apple.pkg.XcodeExtensionSupport.bom
  8. /System/Library/Receipts/com.apple.pkg.XcodeExtensionSupport.plist
  9. /System/Library/Receipts/com.apple.pkg.XcodeSystemResources.bom
  10. /System/Library/Receipts/com.apple.pkg.XcodeSystemResources.plist

but if you don't want to lose all of your customizations, consider saving these files or folders before deleting anything:

  1. ~/Library/Developer/Xcode/UserData/CodeSnippets
  2. ~/Library/Developer/Xcode/UserData/FontAndColorThemes
  3. ~/Library/Developer/Xcode/UserData/KeyBindings
  4. ~/Library/Developer/Xcode/Templates
  5. ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.dt.Xcode.plist
  6. ~/Library/MobileDevice/Provisioning Profiles

Note :- Dont Delete ~/Library/Developer/PrivateFrameworks else u will face crashes on new xcode installations
