Book description
Want to create robust, data-driven, iOS cloud apps? This book makes
it easier!
Apple's mobile operating system (iOS) supports iPhones, iPads, iPods and
other Apple devices, and while even beginners can now develop apps to
run just on these devices themselves, sometimes you want to create an
app with more heft. Applications such as live weather reports or
multi-player games require a lot of data to be pulled from outside-often
from cloud-based Web Services, such as Google or Amazon. This book,
written by application development experts Sujee Maniyam and Neal
Goldstein, shows you how to weave all of this together to create robust
iOS apps.
Developers will learn how to get, post, and modify data as well as how
to create and deploy new, app-specific Web Services. The book includes
numerous sample programs such as Xcode projects, sample server code used
to create Web Services in the cloud, desktop client back-ends, server
metrics, and more.
Takes new and seasoned developers beyond the creation of simple
client-based iOS applications to create more sophisticated, data-driven,
cloud-based mobile apps Explains how to access existing Web Services
from native IOS applications and also how to create and deploy new,
app-specific Web Services Includes sample programs such as Xcode
projects with complete source code, and sample server code for creating
cloud-based Web Services Offers valuable and hard-to-get information for
new or veteran iOS developers, from small shops to enterprise iOS
development Connecting your iOS app to the cloud just got easier, with
iOS Cloud Development For Dummies
.
Note:
Apple's iOS SDK tools are only accessible on Intel-powered Mac and
MacBook devices.
