Finally, Book 1: Diving In from my “iOS Apps for Non-Programmers” is in the iBookstore! http://itunes.apple.com/us/book/book-1-diving-in-ios-app-development/id558788074?mt=11 iBooks are my favorite ebook format–once you get your book in the store! You have much greater control over what the book looks like, the fonts and sizes that are used, so it’s much easier to create a book that looks great. All images are high definition, and it’s easy to imbed our step-by-step videos right in the book. Book 2: Flying with Objective-C should be through the Apple review process in the next day or two!

iOS App Development for Non-Programmers – Book 1: Diving In

By kevinmcneish

For those of you who have been following the news, my first book in our new series, iOS App Development for Non-Programmers is now available in Kindle Edition on Amazon! http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0097N8XBE As it turns out, rather than writing a single book, I’m releasing a series of books. After realizing I had 3,000 pages worth of material, I knew that a book series was the way to go! Ultimately, I don’t think it’s realistic that a non-programmer is going to learn everything they need to know from a single book…those of us who are professional developers learned over a period of … Continue reading iOS App Development for Non-Programmers – Book 1: Diving In
