WXcode Update in App Store not starting? How to update Xcode correctly?

I amm trying to update Xcode on my MacBook Air (newest OS).

Whenever I try to start the update it doesn't look like its getting downloaded.

The process is not going on and sticking at the beginning, see screenshot:

What should I do? I already restarted my MacBook several times with no luck.

Maybe I have to download the Xcode at the Apple Developers page directly?

But I need to uninstall Xcode first? How does the installation work with the manually downloaded Xcode zip file?

Or should I just wait till the download process is going on at the App Store?

Xcode is fairly large - probably the download is in progress but will take quiet a long time?

You can also try to update Xcode from the command line by running

softwareupdate --install -a

This should perform all pending updates, including Xcode, provided MacOS is already updated to the latest version.
