build an iPhone app (read all 11 entries…)
Day 4 of learning how to build an iPhone app 16 months ago

I can’t really show much for my work yesterday. I found a great blog that has tutorials and good explanations for building simple apps. I followed:

  • Build your first iPhone application: walks you through some very basic (but difficult to understand at first) principles of iPhone app development.
  • Tab Bar Controller: A quick tutorial on building a tabbed-bar application (which is what I was originally looking for when I found the blog).
  • Drill Down App: a good walk-thru of hooking up a table to information and navigation.

I’ll go through the other two that get into how to hook up a sqlite database to your app when I get to the point of needing to know how to do that. For now, I’m gonna start over from scratch again and make sure I know every little detail of what I need to do to do this right.

I’ve also been asking Buzz a lot of questions and he’s been super helpful with answering my clearing confusing questions via Twitter (questions and answers limited to 140 characters seems like a good constraint in this situation).

The cafe was way too crowded today, so I’m working from Rick Webb’s bedroom. I’ve got my own air conditioner, air purifier, ice coffee, and tuna sandwich. Totally ready.
