I'm assuming dropping a couple thousand dollars for a Mac and a "dev account" is obligatory to get any serious iOS training, development, testing?
Still fail to understand why Java was chosen for Android, but oh well, the learning curve ought to be flatter.
- Cabal 16y agoI'm assuming dropping a couple thousand dollars for a Mac and a "dev account" is obligatory to get any serious iOS training, development, testing? Good point, had a brain fart. I suppose it depends on how little you want to spend, obviously bigger is better. On the cheap end, I've had no problems developing in the past on a cheap refurb Mini (Intel-based) after swapping in memory and a faster drive. Also, you can pick up the SDK and Xcode with an unpaid developer account, but will need the real thing for publishing to the App Store. Still fail to understand why Java was chosen for Android, but oh well, the learning curve ought to be flatter. I think you've mostly answered your own question: everyone knows it. On the bright side, the latest JVM with JIT is pretty nice.
