Synopsis
If you're getting started with iOS development, or want a firmer grasp of the basics, this practical guide provides a clear view of its fundamental building blocks--Objective-C, Xcode, and Cocoa Touch. You'll learn object-oriented concepts, understand how to use Apple's development tools, and discover how Cocoa provides the underlying functionality iOS apps need to have. Dozens of example projects are available at GitHub. Once you master the fundamentals, you'll be ready to tackle the details of iOS app development with author Matt Neuburg's companion guide Programming iOS 7 . Explore the C language to learn how Objective-C works Learn how instances are created, and why they're so important Tour the lifecycle of an Xcode project, from inception to App Store Discover how to build interfaces with nibs and the nib editor Explore Cocoa's use of Objective-C linguistic features Use Cocoa's event-driven model and major design patterns Learn the role of accessors, key-value coding, and properties Understand the power of ARC-based object memory management Send messages and data between Cocoa objects, If you want to build an app optimized for iPhone or iPad, you need a thorough understanding of the Objective-C language, the Cocoa API, and the Xcode development environment. This practical guide walks you through the fundamentals of these iOS building blocks, complete with easy-to-follow code examples. By learning how to navigate the idiosyncracies of this framework, you'll be able to create a clean, fundamentally sound iOS app. Understand why and how Objective-C works by looking at the C language and object-oriented programming in general Dive into Xcode and learn about the interface, documentation, and the lifecycle of a project Explore the Cocoa framework and its pecularities for developing optimized iOS applications, If you want to build an app optimized for iPhone or iPad, you need a thorough understanding of the Objective-C language, the Cocoa API, and the Xcode development environment.
