DESCRIPTION:
There was nothing wrong with that except for one thing - it's very unpleasant to write code in! The release of Xamarin changed all of that, and with it brought cross-platform development to the mobile world.Xamarin Mobile Application Development for iOS is not just your normal everyday book on iOS app development. From there, successive chapters cover the user interface, views, view controllers, customisation of controls, animation, events and event handling, getting the most from your app using threading, creating your own settings system, the internal database system and LINQ, sending texts, making calls, taking photos, videos, and audio recordings as well as using the mapping system. If you want to develop iOS apps with Xamarin, and this comprehensive tutorial has it all. It is assumed that you are already comfortable using C#. The code has been taken from fully tested apps, so you can just drop it into your code and it will work out of the box.In this clear and informative guide, you will be taken on a whirlwind tour of iOS application development with Xamarin, from setting up a development environment on your PC or Mac to testing and distribution through the Apple Store with plenty of practical examples along the way.The book begins by discussing the installation of the IDE (for both PC and Mac) as well as how to set up your PC so it can be used to develop for iOS. It is an all-encompassing book that leaves nothing out.What you will learn
Title should be labeled as "Reference" Karl G. Barek The title of the book is very misleading. If it had been titled, A Reference Book then I wouldn't be giving it only 1 star. But, it isn't. It's titled as if it actually shows you how to develop in Xamarin for the iOS. The book simply contains snippets of examples, no full examples or small projects of any kind. . Acceptable Sergio Martinez Marin The organization of the book is not very acceptable, perhaps more structured content made a book to be more acceptable to buy.The code segments are illustrative, but no complete code.. Good to start with Xamarin iOS Development Illustrative screen-shots, code snippets and the simple language of this book let you get accustomed to Xamarin very quickly and effectively. Lots of code examples present in the book will let you get your first Xamarin application up and running within minutes.Some prior knowledge of Xcode would help, but with l
When Xamarin released monodroid, Paul could see that his years of learning could now be turned into profit and went full-time developing code for the platform. JohnsonPaul F. That was the beginning of the end of his time in education, and over the next 10 years, he learned how to code in VB.NET and C#. Shortly afterwards, he began working on iOS devices as well.At the start of 2013, Paul along with Andrei and his good friend Scott, formed Sporkish, the objective being to produce unbeatable software for the mobile world.This is his first foray into the world of books, though he has had many articles published in the Overload and C Vu journals of Association of C and C++ Users (he edited the latter for over a year). For many years, he married the two at the University of Salford, culminating in commercial work for RiscStati
as well as working on the award winning Scribus desktop publishing application.For many years, Paul contributed a large amount of time to the Fedora Project (a community-based Linux distribution sponsored by RedHat), and in 2002, he started to become interested in the Mono project from Ximian. Johnson has been writing software since the days of the
