Book 1: Diving In – iOS App Development for Non-Programmers (The Series on How to Write iPhone & iPad Apps) by Kevin McNeishDescriptionReview:"Most of the books I scanned, even the “Dummies” series, assumed a basic knowledge of computer programming even for iOS beginners. What I like about Kevin’s writing is that he doesn’t make any assumptions – he just takes you there – step by step." - Lorraine Akemann – Moms With Apps Finally, a Book Series for Non-ProgrammersUnleash the App Developer Within!This first book in the series from Kevin McNeish, award-winning App Developer, highly acclaimed iOS trainer and conference speaker, is specifically designed to teach non-programmers how to create Apps for the iPhone and iPad. Many books designed for the beginning Apple developer assume way too much. In contrast, this book series assumes you know nothing about programming. This first book is your “easy in” and builds confidence that you can write Apps for the iPhone and iPad. Each chapter and exercise has been reviewed by people like you—with little or no experience in how to make an App. Many sections of the book were rewritten, diagrams were added, and examples improved until all “beta readers” completely understood each key concept. The information in this book is applicable to the latest iOS technologies including the new iPhone 5 and iOS 6. You will learn about storyboards, scenes, navigation, displaying lists of data, animating transitions between scenes, using maps, and much more. Includes Step-by-Step Instructional Videos!There are seven step-by-step instructional videos in which you watch the author create each part of the App. This is great for non-programmers who might need some extra help. Not a "Dumbed Down" Series!Ultimately, readers will learn everything that is taught in the regular written-for-programmer books. This series simply provides more background information and more thorough explanations for those who haven't had formal education or a career in software development. Review "Great for developers too! With this book, I finally understand the relationship between Xcode, Objective-C, Cocoa Framework, and the related Mac tips. If I don't get a concept, the video at the end of each chapter brings it all together." – Microsoft .NET Developer About the Author The author has spent much of his software career making difficult concepts easy to understand. He has taken his vast experience accumulated in teaching his highly acclaimed iPhone & iPad classes, workshops, and boot camps for non-programmers and presented it to you in this book series.
