No need to revert OS. Xcode comes with developers toolkits. Newer versions of xcode allow users to develop codes for older macs. In order to do that, you have to install the corresponding developers toolkit. Namely 10.12.
I never tried this, but it should work. The other way around is more difficult, I.e., it's difficult to make the package work on an older Mac with 10.y, y<12.
