Quick Start Your Carrier — iOS Mobile Application Developer
Download and Setup Xcode 10
Instead of going through a plenty of study stuff lets quick start your learning with iOS app development in real time.
Below are some of the iOS mobile apps that demonstrate and give an overview of mobile apps, how they look and what you are going to develop.
Hope you get an idea of how the iOS application looks and what we are going to learn and develop. But before start we require some tools, let's have a quick look —
- Apple Machine (Macbook Pro/ iMac/ Mac Mini) — A laptop or computer with macOS
- XCode — IDE used to develop the iOS mobile applications
- Knowledge of programming language like — Objective C, Swift 5.x
Hope you have opened your Macbook Pro, follow below steps to install XCode
Step 1: Open the App Store
Open the App Store app on your Mac. By default the App Store is in the Dock. You can also find it in your Launchpad.
Step 2: Search for Xcode
In the search field in the top-right corner, type Xcode and press the Return key.
Step 3: Install Xcode
Just click the “Get” button and start the installation process. Xcode is several GBs in size so it could take a while. By default Xcode is downloaded into your /Applications directory.
Step 4: Open Xcode
Notes —
A. Xcode is an Integrated Development Environment (IDE) developed by Apple and the iOS developers rely on it for making iOS apps. Xcode 10 can only be installed on a Mac running macOS 10.13.4 (High Sierra) or above but ideally you should be running macOS 10.14.0 or above (Mojave).
B. Make sure you have at least 10GB free on your hard-drive before attempting installation.
All Set
Hope you’ve completed all above steps. Now you’re eligible to develop your first iOS app.
