Easy way to learn is to do different tutorials on each segment of design.
iOS Programming
- Thread starter Marky
- Start date
What exactly put you off? The square brackets?
Oh no, I quite enjoyed all that NS[] Autorelease pool nonsense, it was all the GUI stuff dragging lines all over the shop for buttons and things in Interface Builder.

whoooooho finally!
I'm currently building the support page so people can download it if it gets approved!
EDIT: Throughout the whole building process the main problems for me was Xcode having issues. For example closing unexpectedly. I had to rebuild my mac because of it.

This is how I have it so far using no lines of code what so ever. There are more pages but not took screenshots of them.

Just spotted this thread, if you don't mind me asking how do you get to s atge of having an app that works without writing one line of code?
Specific software?

xCode
The beauty of: Drag, Drop, Build, Sign! It's why I love Apple! PS This is a simple app, more complex things has to be done via code under the shell!My app is done via static content, which means no data goes in or out of the app. It's just UI Table Cells.

I'm an Android / WinMo developer and am looking at getting into iOS.
I bought this book; Programming in Objective-C, Fourth Edition (0321811909). After reading the first few chapters I've then bought a MBP Retina as a dev machine. Looking forward to getting stuck in

I've just started about 2 months ago. Haven't got stuck in yet but I'm doing bits and pieces of learning when I get the time. Managed to make a simple calculator app, coding it from scratch (no tutorials). Now I'm looking at master detail stuff.
I do find it complicated but have basic knowledge in PHP, Basic etc so although it's a pretty big step I have some sort of foundation to work from.
I've been using the tutorials others have mentioned on here. Lynda.com is pretty good with Simon Allardice.

What a great thread. Lots of good info
You going to give it a bash phate? It's free if you use the iOS emulator. You only pay if you want to test it on devices or release it.
I've thought about it for a while. I get occasional ideas for apps...anything is doable with enough time and patience.
iOS development really isn't all that hard these days - especially now that the compiler handles all of the memory management for you. It can just be a little tedious getting everything working. Fine if you've got the time and the patience.
There's some really good videos from this year's WWDC on iTunes. Worth checking out.
