Foundations of Objective-C App Development
An introduction to the Objective-C programming language. This will prepare you for more extensive iOS app development and build a foundation for advanced iOS development topics.
Objective-C programming requires a Mac laptop or desktop computer. An iOS device is optional if the learner is willing to working exclusively with the simulator. Some learners have been able to work with an OS X virtual machine on Windows, but explaining how to do that is beyond the scope of this course.
Upon completing this course, you will be able to:
1. Read and write Objective-C
2. Have a strong grasp of Objective-C objects
3. Organize their code professionally using objects and blocks
4. Prototype several entry-level apps
