iOS Learning!

Basic Information

• We will be following along with this course syllabus: syllabus but we'll be on wednesdays instead of Tuesdays.

Getting Started

• Sign up for an Apple Developer Account if you don't have one
• Sign up for a github account
• Setup your git repository for textbook work (preferably public)

Setting up your git Repository

(These are the instructions for setting up a public repository, which is recommended)

• Create a fork of this repository under your own github account (button is currently on the upper right of the page)
• On the page for your fork, copy the SSH Clone URL (should look like git@github.com:YourGithubUsername/tanooki-ios-learning-spring-2015.git)
• In your terminal, type the following commands (here's a basic guide if you're just getting started):
• cd place/you/want/to/do/your/work
• git clone git@github.com:YourGithubUsername/tanooki-ios-learning-spring-2015.git (replace with your URL)
• cd tanooki-ios-learning-spring-2015
• mkdir textbook_work/firstname_lastname (please replace with your name)
• touch textbook_work/firstname_lastname/.keep (this just creates a blank file)
• git add .
• git commit -m 'added my directory for textbook work, whooo!'
• git push origin master

Commiting Work

As you go through the book, you'll be coding along with the examples in the book. As a general rule, any time the author writes something like "now try running your code, it should work", and your code works, it is time to commit.
