If you know C, Objective-C is very little syntax on top of it. I learnt it over a weekend ~12 years ago by mostly reading Apple's programming guide[1] and then the Objective-C runtime reference[2] and just playing with some code and GDB. That was enough for me to lead a small team of iOS devs and we built slew of popular apps for the next two years. My background prior to that was in desktop GUI development using Qt and C++. I don't work in the iOS/macOS dev field anymore, but I've tried learning Swift in a similar fashion over weekends, to no avail. Incidentally, do you have any recommendations for learning Swift for someone coming from a C/ modern C++ background?
