Unable to download Xcode on the MacBook Air (2020)

I bought the MacBook Air 2020, literally today but every time I download Xcode, it downloads roughly 6GB of the total 8GB it takes to install then it stops and gives the messages 'Unable to download Xcode.'

Does anyone know the reason why and can shed some light on what to do?

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 10.15

Remove the partial download, reboot your Mac, and try again. Might have been a temporary Apple server-side issue.
