If, before the end of the first day of the course, you are not satisfied and notify the instructor you wish to withdraw, you will receive a full refund of all course fees paid. All training material must remain with the instructor at the time of withdrawal.
The iPhone Boot Camp is dedicated to providing the highest quality training possible in iPhone development Most iPhone workshops hire developers that themselves are new to Mac development. At any price the training turns out to be a waste of time and money.
The Three Day Intensive workshop from 10am-6pm, a full 24 hours of training, covers the fundamentals and advanced feature of iPhone development, enough material that after the workshop you should be able to develop your own iPhone application and upload it to the AppStore. The workshop is limited in size and features hands on exercises under the supervision of the instructor.
We hire only recognized experts in the field with years of experience developing on the Mac - former Apple engineers, creators of bestselling iPhone apps, renown authors of books relating to iPhone development - iPhone and Mac developers that thoroughly know what they are teaching and how best to teach it.
San Francisco IPhone Boot Camp Trainers:
Eddie Marks and James Anthony, Inedible software, co-founders
James Anthony and Eddie Marks co-founded Inedible Software, a Palo Alto based iPhone development company with over 3.9M downloads. They first learned iPhone programming at Stanford University in the legendary CS193P course, where they were taught by Paul Marcos and Evan Doll, two Apple engineers. After graduating in June 2009, with James earning a BS in Physics and Eddie a BAH (Honors) in Economics and a BS in Mathematics they started work on Inedible Software full time.
Their first product, Air Guitar, started as a final project for CS193P and then went through another month of polishing before being released to the store. Over the next months they created four additional applications, launching two into the overall top 10 lists and two into their category’s respective top 30.
Their primary focus has been exploring the capabilities of the accelerometer, moving from typical shake and tilt detection to full gesture recognition (Air Guitar detects strumming and whammying, Shotgun Free / Pro detect cocking and firing and POW detects punching). They also created an app (currently unavailable) to promote the Magnolia Pictures film Mutant Chronicles
Industry players have recognized them as having unique insights on the evolution of the app marketplace, and they hope to share their experiences monetizing apps with advertisers and pay models and ensuring an app gets noticed.
What you will learn?
Day 1: iPhone SDK Basics:
We start with live coding of the classic simple "Hello World" application to get an overview of the steps and tools involved. You will build your first iPhone Application. Topics include an Introduction to the tools: Mac OS X, Cocoa Touch, XCode, ObjCProcess: Design in IB, Code in XCode, Build, Debug, Optimize,Building Blocks: Foundation and UIKit Frameworks. Other Frameworks, C LibrariesFoundation Framework: Core Classes, Memory ManagementUIKit Framework: Infrastructure For Implementing Graphical Event Driven Applications,UIKit Framework: Views & Controls, Controllers, UIApplication,Application Basics: Bootstrapping, Delegation, Windows, Views, Build "Hello World" Application, Adding Behavior - Programming and Design Patterns, Objective C Basics: Classes, Message Syntax, Objective C 2.0: Properties, Dot Notation, Design Patterns: Delegation Design Patterns: Target-Action, Design Patterns: Model-View-Controller
Day 2 - iPhone SDK Intermediate
Expanding User Interface - View Controllers, Navigation, Tab Bars, View Controller Basics, Navigation Controllers, Tab Bar Controllers, Build a Multi-Page ApplicationTable Views, Table View Controllers, Delegation and Data Sources, Custom Table Cells, Build Hierarchical Data Browsing Applications, Data Management with core data, Keystroke-by-keystroke searching, Results presentation, Browsing TableView Application with Searching
Day 3- iPhone SDK Advanced
Web Services, Fetching data from remote services, Caching data locally in SQLite, Build Image Search TableView Application, Performance and Progress, Display progress and activity for long running tasks, Thread operations to keep UI responsive, Enhance Image Search TableView Application with threading, Animation and Drawing, Use UIView animation to do flips, slides, fades and resizing, Enhance Image Search TableView Application with splash page animation, Use Core Graphics to draw shapes, Build Random Polygon Application
In addition James and Edward will devote some class time to their experiences having several successful apps and what it is like in the trenches with a mix of ad revenue from several ad networks and revenue from paid versions of their apps. It should make for an interesting presentations of what is to be an iPhone development company and how to take advantages of the various strategies and revenue models.
We are proud of the apps that are student developers have created.
Check out some of their apps in the store after taking the workshop on our alumni page.
About the iPhone Boot Camp
The iPhone Boot camp is the leading training workshop for professional iPhone development. We employ top level developer-trainers to teach iPhone development and related iPhone development tools, such as Cocoa, Objective C and Open GL ES. To date we have trained in six cities in two countries over 100 developers who have developed dozens of apps in the app store, from indpendent developer to Fortune 500 companies, including IBM, AOL, genentech, SRI, Thomson Reuter, AP, theknot.com, Crate and Barrel, Shure, HBSC,etc.
What should I bring with me?
Who should attend?
Why take a workshop when I can read books, attend a lecture watch videos and webinars?
Most people, even those with extensive experience in programming, find the SDK difficult to master. Books and video are great to prepare for a workshop but there is sitll no substitute for a small hands on workshop with other developer, where you can ask questions to an experienced instructor looking over your shoulder as you go through the episodes step by step. Basically it saves you month of time and money.
