Xcode – How can I set the "lifecycle" option for my project?

I am currently in the process of learning Swift as a beginner and I am using Xcode 14.2 for my learning journey.

In the tutorial book I am following, it mentions the ability to configure the "lifecycle" within UIKit App Delegate.

However, I have encountered a challenge in locating this particular option when I attempt to initiate a new project.

I would greatly appreciate it if someone could kindly guide me on how to properly set up the "lifecycle" for a project within the context of my current Xcode version.

Alternatively, I wonder if it is unnecessary to perform this step anymore due to the advancements in Xcode versions 12 and above.

Thank you ever so much for your time and assistance.

Create project - step 1
Create project - step 2

Tried:
Try to find "lifecycle" option in "General" tab of project.

Expecting:
Understand how to set "lifecycle" within UIKit App Delegate

    I believe that the life cycle setting for creating a new project is deprecated in the latest Xcode. That’s why you don’t see it in your Xcode.

    Xcode 12 introduced the "Life Cycle" options "UIKit / AppKit AppDelegate" and "SwiftUI" when creating a new project.

    Xcode 13 and later do not have this option anymore. The setting is inferred from the "Interface" setting, i.e. if you need an AppDelegate life cycle, choose "Storyboard".
