Learn the Basics of Building an iPhone App

By Scott Gilbertson October 6, 2008 Categories: Mobile, Programming

iPhone SDKNow that Apple has removed the iPhone NDA, which prevented developers from talking about the nuts and bolts of their iPhone apps, a number of tutorials have started to trickle on to the web. One of the best we’ve seen is Matt Long’s simple, easy-to-follow write-up on developing a basic iPhone application.

For those of you more inclined to video tutorials, Long also has a nice video walk through available as well.

Keep in mind that Long’s tutorial is pretty high level and assumes a certain familiarity with both the Cocoa development framework and the model-view-controller paradigm. You’ll also need to have Apple’s developer tools and all the requisite iPhone SDK tools installed.

Still, as long as you have at least some programming background, it shouldn’t be to hard to follow. Long himself is a former Windows developer, proving that it isn’t all that difficult to jump into the Mac/iPhone development world.
