iOS Workshop

You're adept at Java. You've got a solid grasp of that ecosystem. But you keep hearing about iPhone this, iPad that. It worries you just a bit that you haven't yet spent the time to explore this new frontier. Cure that with a nearly Java-free intense eight hour boot camp on the iPad. During this session, you'll use your iPad device to get started coding on the XCode platform, learning the Objective-C language, testing, and deploying your apps.

No previous iPad ecosystem knowledge is assumed. Matthew McCullough and Ben Ellingson will take you from the ground up in this unique coding environment. With their hands on teaching style and one-on-one assistance, you'll explore what it takes to build and deploy an application for the iPhone and iPad devices. We'll start with a simple application that you'll code from line 1 to line 200, all the while testing it in the iPad simulator. Along the way, you'll also discover the Developer signup process and digital certificate setup required to push beta applications to the device. Finally, we will integrate an iPad app with data from a JSON web service.
