Publisher Description
Winner of the Publishing Innovation Award!
"Dedicated to Steve Jobs, this self published book highlights much of
what Jobs himself strove for - clear, crisp design, intuitive interface
and user experience coupled with high quality, clear content." -
Digital Book World
"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
"Great for developers too! With this book, I finally understand the
relationship between Xcode, Swift, 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. - Dan Neuman
This first book in the series from Kevin McNeish, winner of the
Publishing Innovation award, award-winning App Developer, highly acclaimed
iOS trainer and conference speaker, is specifically designed to teach
non-programmers how to create an App 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. The entire book has been reviewed by people
like you--with no experience in how to make an App. Diagrams were added
and examples improved until all "beta readers" completely understood each
key concept.
Up to Date With the Latest Technologies
The information in this book is up to date with the latest iOS
technologies, including the iOS 9 and the latest version of
Xcode. 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.

I LOVE THIS BOOK!
I wanted to make an app, but knew nothing about, but then I stumbled upon iBooks and searched " ios app development". I took a sample of each book there and by far I loved this one, because its easy to understand and learn about everything about it. I'm learning about making an app and this is the best book out there for me and I suggest everyone who, wants to be a developer for apple, should read this book!
