How To Create An iOS App

If you just made a search on how to develop or start creating iOS apps or program or you saw the link and decided to know whats up with iOS, you are in the right place. Here I am not going to show you how to code, but I will be telling you whats needed and how to go about writing app for iPhone, iPad, iPod and all the " is ".

Just like Android with their Android Studio Apple provides you with their developers tools to play around with. You don't have to be a serious coder or developer to take on this challenge as you can just take off and start learning and doing stuffs with available developer tools provided to you by Apple.

But their are some prerequisite to creating iOS app, and they are as follows:

1--> You most have a Mac computer running OS X 10.9.4 or later

2--> An IDE, preferably latest Xcode

3--> iOS SDK

All tools are available for free (I don't think Mac computer running OS X 10.9.4 or later is). As soon as you are ready for the ride do this to your Mac PC.


1--> Download Xcode :- In the App Store app, search for Xcode.

2--> In the search result, click free.

Xcode will be downloaded. Locate in "Applications" folder.

Meanwhile, because iOS is based on Objective C, you may need some crash tutorial on that; after which working with Xcode will be a made easy. Head First iPhone and iPad Development should get you started. As its not complete you may need to head to oreilly.com for the complete version of the book should in case coding get serious. And you definitely will need to go through this https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/referencelibrary/GettingStarted/RoadMapiOS/FirstTutorial.html.

You can also read this web article Building iOS Apps From Scratch. This is a great way to learn iOS building.

OooK. I will wish you smooth journey in your iOS app development. Keep it fun!
