iOS Objective-C Basics (Retired) Fundamentals of C Anatomy of a C program

Where To Start?

The problem I have with coding is really where to start. When I open up Xcode, I always get the choice to make a certain type of view. Then I am also given an overload of files on the left pane, all of which I have no idea how to utilize. Every video I watch looks completely different. Where do I start when I am using the Xcode templates?

you dont really make any apps while doing the objective c basics course. I would download the project files douglas has listed in the teachers notes and use those because if you select a template its not going to work right. You are building c programs with douglas at this point, not apps, which is what the templates are for. You start using the templates and making apps in the iOS projects.

Thank you for the help !
