How To Make an App - Ep 1 - Tools and Materials (Xcode 7, iOS 9)

How To Make iPhone Apps with NO Programming Experience!

Lesson 1: Tools and Materials
This lesson is an orientation of what you need to start making apps and the tools and resources that Apple provides.

This video series uses the latest and greatest from Apple (Xcode 7, Swift 2, iOS 9) and will teach a beginner with no programming experience how to make iPhone apps. I'm creating these videos with the assumption that the student has no prior knowledge and is starting from scratch.

The lesson plan for the How To Make an App series can be found on my site here:

very well done vid, thank you so much!

[rajasivagaminathan]

Best training video I have ever seen, really. I think "with NO programming experience" should be changed to something else. Certainly touches up on some basics but it is not going to make someone who is not a programmer start coding in Swift :) Nevertheless, great great great course. I have coded for 15 years in C++, C# and Java. After watching your course I feel like I am ready to convert my Android apps to iOS. Thank You!!

Do you have any tutorials on creating Core Data apps like a dictionary, cookbook, encyclopedia, etc.

[PaulBeaurepaire]

Hi, great tips and channel !
I'd like to know if it's possible to test at any time your app's progression on your Ipad ? If yes how please :) ?
I've already seen something like that but I'd like to be sure that it's feasible.
Thanks in advance

For a real beginner it's perfect! Just, I think everyone knows, what is AppStore :D

[nusratsoftwaresolutions]

Chris i think rather going towards renting a mac it is better to buy a cheap used MAC, it gives the real joyful experience of coding. Another choice is to use MAC VM on Windows Laptop but one should need atleast Core i3 and 8 GB og RAM.
