AppleScript App Template for Xcode (AppleScriptObjC)

Apple appears to be discouraging developers from writing AppleScript (AppleScriptObjC) apps by removing the corresponding project template from recent Xcode releases (14.3+).

As a result, it may be difficult for developers to access the AppleScript App template, which was available in older versions of Xcode. However, to assist those who are missing this template, I have published it here for download.

Installation instructions

1. Locate the Xcode app in Finder and right-click on it.
2. Select Show package content from the context menu.
3. Navigate to Contents > Developer > Library > Xcode > Templates > Project > Templates > macOS > Other.
   • If any of these folders are missing, create them.
4. Copy or move the downloaded template to this folder.
5. Restart Xcode.
6. To verify that the template has been successfully installed, follow these steps in Xcode:
   1. Click Xode > File > New > New project....
   2. Look for the Other section under the macOS tab and check if Apple Script App is available.

Have fun.
