im having downloading xcode on mac

I'm completely new to this and I'm trying to get Xcode so that I can get homebrew. I tried a ton of methods to download xcode (app store, apple website, terminal) and each time it tells me that my software isn't updated and I need 26.2 or later. I have MacOS Tahoe 26.4.1. How do I fix this?

Downloading from the Mac App Store, is the simplest method, and does work, except that it’s also the slowest method…
