XCode is available for $4.99 on the Mac App Store (so you can get updates automatically) or for FREE if you care to download it and install it yourself. And it is INCLUDED FOR FREE on Mac OS X installation disks and EVERY Mac sold. DUH.
Apple has made it INCREDIBLY EASY for Developers to create apps for OS X. All you have to do is witness the more than 442377 apps that have been approved for iOS (which has OS X as its base OS) and the thousands upon thousands of developers who have signed up for OS X. The Mac App Store makes it also incredibly easy to sell your apps to PAYING CUSTOMERS for OS X on Mac.

OS X IS FOR DEVELOPERS that actually want to ship and sell product. Period.
