Tools for iOS development

Xcode is the most popular toolset used to manage product development, design User interface components, edit and debug source code, analyze and improve application performance. It is also used for submitting your application to the app store as well as performing source control operations in iPhone development.

The first step to develop an iOS application is creation of an Xcode project. This project will manage all the information associated with your application. It also includes the source files, interface designs, and build settings needed to build your application.

The iPhone developers are going to work on this project through a workspace window. It provides a quick access to all the elements that make up your application. Here, if one needs some help regarding performing a task, Xcode also provides the contextual help, which you can access directly from the user interface element about which you need help.

iPhone to iPad programming: Moving ahead

iPhones and iPads  - these two are coined as favorite terms for all the mobile application developers these days. Any programmer, who is running an iPhone-optimized app on iPad will counter a letterboxed 1/3rd size or stretched and pixilated at double the native size. But still, the iPhone developers these take advantages of the latest UI-only conventions are poised to create an entirely ‘NEW’ class of powerful apps on iPads.

The big screen on iPad as compared to iPhone, allows the developers to offer on-screen controls much like a traditional Mac or Windows application.

The technocrats migrating from iPhone to iPad programming have already realized that they can utilize the top navigation bar as a fixed toolbar.

On iPhone, users often jump back and forth to reach essential off-screen options and functions, but on iPad contextual controls are introduced not by forcing the user away from content, but instead with navigation bars, edit boxes and popovers that allow users to linger on the main screen as they edit.

Now with iPad, Apple is challenging us once more to create the first generation of powerful, and robust applications for full-sized multi-touch.
