Where Xcode keeps its logs

Xcode logs to ~/Library/Logs/CoreSimulator/ on macOS. 1 other macOS log location is recorded below.

Paths are printed exactly as Xcode writes them. Environment variables like %LOCALAPPDATA% and $XDG_STATE_HOME are never expanded, so a path can be pasted straight into a shell. Where a path differs between installer types or shipping flavours, each one is racked as its own card below - why that happens.
