I am not getting ‘Package Manager’ option under Window menu when trying to install Alcatraz in Xcode 8.0. I did get the ‘Load Bundle’ pop up. and I see the same as allowed in com.apple.dt.Xcode defaults
“DVTPlugInManagerNonApplePlugIns-Xcode-8.0” = {
allowed = {
“com.mneorr.Alcatraz” = {
version = 1;
};
};
skipped = {
};
};

Xcode 8 up’d the ante for installing plugins. If you want to do this tutorial, I would recommend downloading Xcode 7 and using that for this tutorial, or checking out some of the solutions to unsigning Xcode found at Xcode 8 won't load plug-ins · Issue #475 · alcatraz/Alcatraz · GitHub

Either way, make a backup of your current version of Xcode so you don’t have to re-download

This tutorial is more than six months old so questions are no longer supported at the moment for it. We will update it as soon as possible. Thank you! :]
