About the Training

The iOS Development Training with Objective-C and Xcode teaches how to use the Objective-C programming language and Apple’s Xcode integrated development environment (IDE) to develop iOS applications. This training covers the essential topics that participants will need throughout the iOS app development process.

The course introduces the basic structures of the Objective-C language, including data types, functions, control structures, object-oriented programming (OOP) principles, debugging, and other key concepts. Participants develop Objective-C coding skills through examples and projects.

The training also covers how to use Apple’s Xcode development environment to build iOS applications. Participants will learn about Xcode’s user interface, build processes, debugging tools, and other features. Additionally, they will explore the core features of the iOS SDK, which provides the tools needed to develop applications for various iOS platforms.

The iOS Development Training with Objective-C and Xcode covers the entire iOS app development process. Participants gain the essential skills required before starting to develop apps for iOS platforms. Through examples, practical applications, and projects, the training helps participants start building iOS applications.

The training program begins with the fundamentals of Objective-C programming. Participants learn basic programming concepts such as variables, data types, operators, loops, and control flow. Additionally, detailed lessons are provided to understand object-oriented programming principles in Objective-C, including classes, objects, and methods. These form the foundation that participants will need during the iOS app development process.

The course also focuses on the core features and libraries of the iOS SDK. This equips participants with the ability to leverage the various capabilities and services of the iOS platform. Topics include creating user interfaces (UI), working with documents and data, sending network requests and processing the received data, and utilizing device features (such as the camera, GPS, etc.).

Lastly, we provide guidance on how to upload and publish an app on the App Store. This process covers performing final testing on the app, creating its listing and metadata, and submitting it. This knowledge helps participants successfully publish their apps on the App Store.

What Will You Learn?

During the iOS Development Training with Objective-C and Xcode, you will learn the following:
  • The basic features and usage of the Objective-C language
  • How to use and navigate the Xcode development environment
  • Designing iOS applications and developing user interfaces (UI)
  • Data structures and database usage
  • Networking concepts and connecting to web services
  • Debugging and application testing techniques
  • The process of publishing applications to the Apple App Store
This training covers not only iOS application development topics but also the fundamental features of the Objective-C language and Xcode, allowing you to gain the skills needed to develop functional and impressive applications on the iOS platform.
