I'm not sure why you are getting the first error, but the second one is because you haven't built your project yet (use swift build) to do this. The error used to be handled gracefully but it broke somewhere along the way and apparently hasn't been fixed yet.

Out of curiousity, what did you name your project when it was created?

Seem as documentation Hello. is it problem?

I think that name should be OK. What's the output of swift package generate-xcodeproj?

Homebrew borked your Swift install. Use xcode-select to fix that:

sudo xcode-select -p /Applications/Xcode.app

Can this be put in an FAQ somewhere or make an improved error message? I also ran into this and it took awhile to find this issue.

It might be because there is not Command Line Tool is select in your Xcode.
Go to Xcode > Preferences > Locations > select a tool from dropdown next to Command Line Tools
