currently my playground sidebar is not showing result of any code even i restarted xcode many times but still it is showing nothing.
sidebar is not showing result in playground
I'm having the issue. I see a lot of threads across mahy platforms for this issue and there doesn't seem to be any solution. Its on stack, Github, medium blogs, reddit the list is endless. Xcode since its inception has been nothing but a series of bugs.
Have a look to this thread :

proposed fix is to include the line
import PlaygroundSupport
at the top of the playground.
I'm posting here in case anyone has any news on this issue.
I installed Xcode last night and I'm seeing this issue as well. I'm not seeing results automatically in the sidebar when I add code. I do see results in the sidebar as well as in the Debug area if I click on "Execute Playground", but results from new code after that are not automatically added to the sidebar. Live View is on, and switching it off and on again doesn't help.

This forum, as a newbie to learning Swift, sadly didn't solve my issue so after a lengthy search for help from within Xcode help, the web including the Apple website I thought wearily I would ask ChatGPT before hitting the sack, (not out of frustration although I was, but because I needed a sleep😀). It came up with this which helped me solve the problem:
"Make sure that the "Show Debug Area" option is selected in the View menu of Xcode. This will display the sidebar if it is currently hidden.
If you have multiple pages in your playground, make sure that you have selected the correct page in the sidebar.
If you have checked all of these things and you are still not seeing the output in the sidebar, try restarting Xcode or creating a new playground and see if the issue persists."
When I came back to my computer the next day and selected "Debug Area" from the View menu and clicked on "Activate Console" voila it's working! The ChatGPT instructions got me there it seems (although I'm aware ChatGPT has its limitations including not being peer reviewed in its answers).
