About this class

Learn to build mobile applications for today’s most popular platform: Apple’s iPhone and iPod touch. In this dynamic, two-day workshop, you’ll get up to speed on the basics, including the Cocoa programming environment, the Xcode suite of tools, the Objective-C language, and Instruments, a tool to help debug your applications. And then you’ll create two real iPhone applications.

All you need is familiarity with the Mac, basic experience with object-oriented programming (such as Java or Visual Studio), and an understanding of pointers and C syntax. Instructor and expert iPhone app developer Joe Heck will quickly teach you the rest. What you’ll take away from this workshop is the knowledge you need to build effective iPhone apps with the same tools Apple uses.


Who should attend?
  • Experienced programmers interested in iPhone application development
  • People new to Mac development and iPhone development


What Should I Bring With Me?
  • An Intel Macintosh laptop computer
  • An iPhone or iPod touch, if you have one (optional)
  • Basic programming knowledge, including object-oriented programming experience, such as Java or Visual Studio
  • An understanding of pointers and C syntax
  • Familiarity with the Mac
  • Xcode and the iPhone SDK installed on your Macintosh laptop
