How do I start developing applications for iPhone

Hi I would like to learn and develop applications for iPhone. Can some one guide me on where to start? I'm new to mo开发者_StackOverflow社区bile application development. I have good exp in developing web applications and desktop client applications.

Do you have any experience with C? If not, you should probably start there, then work into learning objective-C, and finally dive into the Apple frameworks (i.e. Cocoa touch).

apple has good documentation at http://developer.apple.com

If you prefer books, I would highly recommend iPhone Programming by Aaron Hilligrass:

Also note that you are free to write iPhone apps and test them on a simulator, but to actually push code to a real device you need to purchase a developer profile for $99

1. Get a mac. An intel based mac is required. Basically you need Mac OS X.
2. Learn C, Objective-C.
3. Get the iPhone SDK.
4. Get a good book on it. Do the examples.
5. Check out the Stanford Learning Series on iTunes, where you can virtually take the course at Stanford. Do the homework assignments, etc...

As darren has said you'll want a good knowledge of C. You can go along the C#/ objective C route but theres also the Airplay SDK. If you have a good knowledge of C apprently you can make games for iPhone quite easily, not had the chance to try it out yet but looks promising. According to the site COD: Nazi Zombies was made using it, might be worth a look.
