Almost all of that stuff you list is actually waaaaaay easier than you give it credit. Setting up a programming environment is not hard, and is done in parallel with programming. Don't like that font? Change it here. Want this hot key to open this because you're tired of clicking the menu every time? Then do it. I started off learning Objective-C; I had an app in mind and the only one that could create what I wanted was me. I learned. A string? That's just characters in order. Float? Any number that could have decimals and that wasn't an integer (though it could be 5.0). An array? Just a list of objects in a specific order. A hash map? A collection of objects where a tag signifies what object is at that location. DEAD SIMPLE STUFF. This is easy-peezy work, and very easy to abstract in my brain. I had an app on the store in 3 months and 10,000 downloads by 6 months. My app was a hugely naive undertaking, that I pulled off, despite not knowing shit about programming and setting up systems before going in. It calculated the best drink specials in my college town. That's 10,000 downloads in my college town. I've continued programming, because I like making stuff, and have random ideas that are usually fairly easy to experiment with and get working. Now I'm an iOS Engineer. I have a Bachelor's degree in Graphic Design with a minor in Advertising. No knowledge is unattainable, or more sacred than the others. I'm sorry you think what Jennifer has done is just impossible to do. It's not.
