Start building iOS Apps Today

Apple have recently released what can only be described as slightly overdue, yet completely perfect. A ‘complete’ start to finish guide on how to jump into iOS application development. Although not a coveted secret, sometimes starting out in iOS application development can be a mysterious and painful place to be!

This guide now walks you through 13 major steps to get you up and running:

1. Introduction to iOS development
2. Installing Tools
3. Jump Right In
4. Tools
5. Language
6. Basic Tasks
7. Frameworks
8. Design Patterns
9. Human Interface Design
10. App Design
11. App Store
12. Finding Information
13. Where to go from here

Ok, ok so the last two are technically major steps – but do offer some very helpful advice..

The guide is broken down into small ‘bite size’ chunks, that leave out the over complicated ‘waffle’ and stick to the basics. It’s perfect if you’re just starting out.

But don’t stop there… Once you’ve worked your way through the guide, I’d strongly recommend checking out and subscribing to Stanford University’s iPad and Application Development series in iTunes U.
