Xcode Beta

is it safe to use Xcode beta 12? Are there any drawbacks to installing it?
For many people Xcode 12 beta 4 crashes whenever they try to open an existing project.

There do not appear to be any other problems.

is it safe to use Xcode beta 12?

You mean Xcode 12 beta 4 I guess; IMHO, yes

Are there any drawbacks to installing it?

No. In fact I even keep several betas installed, back to Xcode 9, to open and convert old projects if needed.

But development of real apps should still be done on 11.6.
