* For those unfamiliar with Aaron, he's one of the foremost authors and teachers of Mac and iOS development -- going all the way back to NeXT. He's gonna be a little biased towards Objective-C, but what he has to say is definitely of interest.
- dotnick 12y agoGood read, thanks for the link.
- vyshane 12y agoI've read this post. I would still recommend that you jump straight into Swift. Objective-C has its own set of quirks and pain points. If I was starting over, I would go straight to Swift. It's an altogether nicer and more consistent language.
- igrekel 12y agoI agree if just to not go back 15 years and start writing header files again.
- gdubs 12y agoI posted the link because Aaron is an important voice in Mac/iOS development, but I personally lean more towards your point-of-view. If one is starting out today, I'd highly recommend digging into swift immediately.
