Sams Teach Yourself iPhone Application Development in 24 Hours

Great Price "Sams Teach Yourself iPhone Application Development in 24 Hours" for $19.99 Today



If you're a developer who has never worked on Apple platforms before, this book is GREAT. The iPhone training materials from Apple are thorough but they are frustrating to anyone coming into it cold and wanting to know how to start. This book plugs all of the holes and gets you going fast. It does not give you every little detail but the point is that you can build simple but interesting aps, understanding what you are doing at each step of the way, and come out of it knowing how to continue by yourself. I looked at a lot of other books and they were either too simplistic, only oriented at games, too advanced, etc.

Couple of challenges... the index is mediocre and there was one missing step in the early stages (you have to go into xCode->Windows->Organizer and actually enable your iPhone for development or it won't load your debug aps).

    Download the errata FIRST! - Donovan Reeve -
    I have been able to get all of the examples through the first 14 chapters to work. I have at least a dozen iPhone books and think comparatively this is the best or second best starter book (O'Reilly's Head First is good too). Most chapters do take more than an hour(Of course I'm learning Objective-C at the same time). I also like the fact that this is the first book to show you how to get examples on to your own iPod Touch from the beginning of the book instead of telling you to just use the X-Code simulator. but (and this is a big but) DOWNLOAD THE ERRATA from the Sams website first. It will save you a lot of frustration.


    Very good intro into iPhone Dev - Sandro Massarani - Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
    While other iPhone books received many deserved praises, I found that this book had the easiest explanation and learning curve for the beginner cocoa touch and objective-c programmer.

    After read all the book, you will be prepared to absorb more demanding books easily. It's a great intro book and really worth your money, specially the first chapters.
