I was wondering if there is a way that I could install Xcode 6 along side Xcode 5. I've seen people say you could but they haven't really explained why. Can someone help to explain why? Also, how would you uninstall it if I wished to in the future?

It's simple. The Xcode 6 beta is named Xcode6-beta.app and you drag install it into /Applications. The GM version of Xcode is called Xcode.app. If you need to switch the command line tools you use xcode-select. Nothing has changed here. It's the same as it's been. When you want to "uninstall" it, drag it to the trash. It's that simple.
