I'm excited to see Bill Dudney's iPhone screencasts, and the definitive iPhone book, finally see the light of day!
Here's a little secret: On the screencast page you'll find a link to a
20-minute "Getting Started with Xcode and Interface Builder" screencast that's
absolutely free. In that screencast, Bill shows you how to build the simplest
of iPhone apps (a Hello World app). More important, he shows you how
it works—from main triggering Nib files being loaded, to
wiring up interface controls, and all the way through a button push running
code that you write.
You won't learn everything (that's what the rest of the series is about), but the freebie screencast is a great way to get started. You can follow along and have a basic iPhone app running in just a couple minutes. Fun stuff!
