Beginning Xcode - Swift 3 Edition (Paperback, 1st ed.)

Similar to Microsoft's Visual Studio suite of tools, the Xcode integrated development environment (IDE) and tools platform contain everything you need to create Mac OS X and iOS apps. As powerful as the Xcode Tools are, they can be difficult to learn. Most Mac OS X and iOS development books focus on Cocoa and Cocoa Touch programming, as they should. They teach enough Xcode for you to create the projects in the book. But there's more to writing real apps than writing code. Real apps must be tested and debugged to make sure they run properly and must be profiled to make sure they run fast enough. Most iOS programming books aren't going to show you how to profile your program or find memory leaks in it.Pro Xcode picks up where other books leave off. It teaches the latest Xcode IDE and tools, not a particular language or programming framework. With this book, you can spend more time writing, debugging, and profiling your Mac OS X and/or iOS apps and less time searching and reading documentation. This book doesn't stop with Xcode and Interface Builder. It covers a dozen developer tools, both graphical and command-line tools. You will learn how to profile your code and check for memory leaks with Instruments. Write shaders with OpenGL Shader Builder, debug OpenGL ES apps with frame capture, and uncover performance problems with OpenGL ES Performance Detective. And, learn storyboarding for iOS apps and converting Objective-C projects to use automatic reference counting. If you want to spend more time creating, testing, and profiling your applications and less time wading through Apple's documentation, get a copy of this book.
