I need a advice about if this mac mini that I'm going to buy will run smooth for what I will use. I need a mac mini only for programming, I will use only the Xcode and the simulator.

This is the mac mini configuration:

Intel core i5 2.5ghz

12 GB RAM

Fusion Drive 620gb

Intel HD Graphics 4000

Late 2012 Mac Mini

With this configuration, will I be able to develop with Xcode and run the simulator?

not will be smooth but better update the fusion to ssd if can. E.g if iphone x required 8 GB RAM you think how much ram left for os and xcode ? so max if up if can.
