'Installation/update of Xcode 13.2.1 with minimal simulator
There was a query on updating Xcode, when there is not much disk space(Unable to Update XCode: Not enough space). Mine is different, but may provide a solution to the above query. Unlike Visual Studio, Xcode doesn't give any option to selectively install the modules. Is there a way by which, one can install/update vanilla Xcode and later install/update the required simulators? This would greatly reduce the storage requirement for Xcode. I am using MacOS Monterey 12.1 on a 2017 model Macbook Air.

I had upgraded the OS to Version 12.3 and made one more attempt to update my Xcode to 12.3. Voila! There wasn't any complaint on lack of disk space and the update was successfully carried out. I swear that I haven't carried out any interim disk-cleaning operation and it remained at 40 GB as ever.
