What This Book Will Do For You Let me get this straight: you want to learn how to program for the iPhone or the iPad, and you consider yourself to be pretty intelligent but whenever you read computer code or highly technical instructions, your brain seems to shut down. Do your eyes glaze over when reading gnarly instructions? Does a little voice in your head chide you, How about that Your brain shut down six lines ago, but you re still scanning the page pretending you re not as dense as you feel. Great See if you can relate to this you re having an issue with something pretty technical and you decide to Google it and troubleshoot the problem. You open the top hit and somebody else has asked the exact same question You become excited as the page loads, but, alas, it s only a bulletin board (a chat site for all those geeks who yap at one another in unintelligible code). You see your question followed by but it s too late Your brain has already shut down, and you feel the tension and frustration as knots in your belly. Sound familiar? Yes? Then this book s for you My guess is that you re probably standing in a bookstore or in the airport, checking out a magazine stand for something that might excite. Because you re reading this in some such upscale place, you can probably afford an iPhone, a Mac, a car, and plane tickets.…

The iPhone is the hottest gadget of our generation, and much of its success has been fueled by the App Store, Apple’s online marketplace for iPhone applications. Over 1 billion apps have been downloaded in the 9 months the App Store has been open, ranging from the simplest games to the most complex business apps. Everyone has an idea for the next best-selling iPhone app―presumably that’s why you’re reading this now. And with the release of the iPad, this demand will just continue to grow.
So how do you build an application for the iPhone and iPad? Don’t you need to spend years learning complicated programming languages? What about Objective-C, Cocoa Touch, and the software development kit (SDK)? The answer is that you don’t need to know any of those things. Anybody can start building simple applications for the iPhone and iPad, and this book will show you how.
This book takes you to getting your first applications up and running using plain English and practical examples. It cuts through the fog of jargon and misinformation that surrounds iPhone and iPad application development, and gives you simple, step-by-step instructions to get you started.
- Teaches iPhone and iPad application development in language anyone can understand
- Provides simple, step-by-step examples that make learning easy
- Offers videos that enable you to follow along with the author―it’s like your own private classroom
