One of my most popular conference talks is now available as an on-demand webinar!
Who is this webinar for?
More and more .NET developers seem to be considering iOS development. This session is targeted at developers who know nothing about iOS development, Xcode or Objective C, and everything is presented from the perspective of people already knowledgeable about .NET, Visual Studio and C#.
What is covered in the webinar?
We look at why you should care about building native iOS apps and I provide a quick intro to the Apple world. I present everything you need to get started with iOS development (yes, you need a Mac) and we build our first simple iOS project for the iPhone. I make several comparisons with the Visual Studio world to explain iOS principles, we take a peek at the many iOS frameworks, the many options for third-party iOS controls, and where to go from here.
If you’ve always wanted to take a look at iOS development, this is the webinar to get you started.
