I have downloaded and installed the latest version of XCODE but I keep running into references to iphone SDK (software development kit) and I'm not sure what it is. I want to make iphone apps so is iphone SDK some kind of software I need in addition to XCODE? It would be great if someone could tell me everything I need to make iphone apps.😀
Are you running Snow Leopard or Lion?
What version Xcode are you using, exactly?
Running lion and the latest version of Xcode 4.2.1

Thanks for the link. I did get a developer account $99. So is Xcode the only software I will need for iphone apps? What about graphics software. I have a licensed version of Rhino for creating 3D CAD models. I don't know if that will come in handy or not.
What you need in addition to Xcode depends entirely on what type of apps you expect to build and distribute.
Apps need icons and they are just .pngs, but if you have someone else do them, all you'll need is Preview at the most.
Does anyone know of any good tutorials on app making?
Listen...this stuff isn't paint-by-number that anyone can pick up and learn over the weekend. Start with the links I gave you and dig in. There are links there to videos, that it appears you've decided to ignore and beg for someone to spoonfeed you instead. Good luck with that if you think it's appropriate...
Look if you don't want to help then for God sake don't respond to my posts. I just asked a question. Responding is optional.😉
I'll find my answers one way or the other.
Do I need an iphone SDK?
