Enabling Developer Mode on Mac

If you say 'No' to Xcode's prompt to enable developer mode first time, it will ask for your password every time after that. Want to get rid of that? Good news: It's one command away!

When Xcode runs for first time, it will ask you to enable developer mode.

However, if you end up saying ‘No’ for some reason (I said due to security without thinking) and want to enable again, just run this in the terminal:

DevToolsSecurity -enable

No more pesky password prompt every time now. Enjoy iOS and Mac development!
