Manual removal of derived data

If you want to remove derived data manually just run:

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

If you want to free up more disk space there's a few other directories you might want to clear out as well though.

Automatic removal of Xcode generated files

I have created a Bash script for removing all kinds of files generated by Xcode. Removing DerivedData content can be done by running:

./xcode-clean.sh -d

Many different solutions for this problem  Most of them work as well  Another shortcut seems to be added as well   Shift   alt   command     K  Will ask you to      Are you sure you want to clean the build folder for    MyProject          This will delete all of the products and intermediate files in the build folder    In most cases this would be enough to solve your problems   UPDATE  As of Xcode 9 you ll be able to access the Derived Data folder by navigating to   File -  Project Settings   or if you use a Workspace    File -  Workspace Settings  And press the arrow behind the path
