Learning objective C for making an iP*d sound app
Hi I'm an experienced coder and I was hoping someone could point me to some useful resources on learning objective C for iPad development. I have some interface drawings for a music/sound-making app we want to build, and now it's time to learn how to make it happen on the iPad.
is Xcode the preferred IDE in your opinion? And can I just get a mac mini and start hacking away right away?
Thanks,
with love, total newbie in all matters osx

- dirktheman 11y agoXcode is the best IDE for Swift and Objective-C, if you're developing for OSX/IOS. And yes, you can download it for free on any new-ish Mac. The tutorials from Ray Wenderlich (http://www.raywenderlich.com/ http://www.raywenderlich.com/) have been massively helpful to me.
- drakenot 11y agoI found the Big Nerd Ranch iOS Development book to be invaluable when I first started. The book will dig really deep at times and show you how things work under the covers to some degree. Another decent resource for getting up to speed was the Stanford iOS course videos.
