iOS SDK/iOS Dev/Xcode
« on: December 27, 2011, 07:32:17 PM »

Has anyone used it before?
Basically I'm considering spending the $100/yr on the iOS development program to try out coding some apps for the iPod touch, iPad, and iPhone. I'm not entirely sure if I'm going to or not though. I think I probably will... but I'm not sure how complicated the programming is for this. If it's something extreeeemely hard (which I don't think it is?) then I probably won't spend my time learning it and buying the development program for it.
So anyone got an experience in this?

I heard (Don't know for sure, never seen for myself) that the apps are written in Objective C, which is a bitch to learn.

Apple use Objective-C wich was influenced by C. I think you can write apps in C, also.

Don't get into it if you don't know any languages already.

I do :L just none too complicated. If you're both certain that it's using Objective-C then I'll see if I can take a look at that before buying anything.

Just so you know developing these apps on a mac is preferred so you can use apple's apps and not the shitty windows ports of xcode and such

Yea I know that. Is there a significant difference though? Like, you can still do it on a PC? :L

To create an application for iPhone or other Apple products, is used mostly Objective-C. But remember that Objective-C is based on C language So it's very important to learn the C language that is easy and then you have more idea of ​​how to program in Objective-C.

It would be kind of pointless to learn C to learn Objective-C, especially seeing as it is pretty different being object oriented lol.

Well, but is a tip: will be very advantageous to learn first C to start lean Objective-C, regardless whether of object-oriented or systems.
