I have finally written an iPhone app. It's a fairly useless app, and based on one of the first Windows Phone Apps I wrote and actually published.<\/p>\n
I learned how to write mobile apps by going to several workshops put on by Microsoft. I have had a major writer's\/programmer's block when it has come to writing iPhone apps. <\/p>\n
I am most comfortable programming in the Visual Studio environment because I learned it early in its life cycle teaching Visual Basic. It was not a stretch to go to C#, C++, and then creating Zune\/XBox games and Windows Phone apps.<\/p>\n
I even taught Java in a Visual Studio look alike IDE.<\/p>\n
I approached Swift in several ways — working with a college friend of mine, doing Swift Playground on the tablet, but I finally bit the bullet and found this set of tutorials: https:\/\/codewithchris.com<\/p>\n
Now, I have never learned well watching others. I would have done much better in college if we could have sat in a lab and programmed as we learned, but that wasn't possible in the day. I have taken courses that way, and it works well, especially if the instructor is slow.<\/p>\n
I do best with a book — these days I use Kindle, but I haven't found the correct book. I might be bothering a friend of mine about that. <\/p>\n
Swift hasn't been that hard for me. The CodeWithChris cheat sheets would help. My problem is drawing the user interface, and right now, it is god awful. I will be spending the next few days or weeks working on that.<\/p>\n
Once I get there, I have some ideas for some truly useful apps. <\/p>\n
