The arrival of the iPhone changed everything. Or, at the very least, it changed the whole direction of software development for mobile platforms. Which is a pretty big thing. It spawned an entire generation of copycat devices and shook an entire multi-billion dollar industry to its knees. Despite this it still fits in your pocket.
Learning iPhone Programming by Alasdair Allan is published by O'Reily Media and is now available in print, as an ebook or to read online via Safari Books.
This book gives a rapid introduction to programming for the iPhone and iPod touch for those with some programming experience. If you are developing on the Mac for the first time, drawn to the platform because of the iPhone, or an experienced Mac programmer making the transition to the iPhone, this book is for you.
The book guides you through developing your first application for the iPhone, from opening Xcode for the first time, to submitting your application to the App Store. You'll learn about Objective-C and the core frameworks needed to develop for the iPhone by writing applications that use them, giving you a basic framework for building your own applications independently.
The book assumes some knowledge of C, or least passing knowledge of a related language. Additionally, while I do give a crash course, some familiarity with object orientated programming concepts would be helpful.
