How can I ship my app with a pre-populated Core Data database?

Question

My app uses Core Data and I want some default entries to be inside. What\'s best practices of how to do that?

Answer 1

There is Core Data Editor at the app store. Alternatively you could build your own simple mac app just for this particular DB and manage it from there. If the amount of default entries is small, then you're better off storing it in a plist or something and loading it into DB after the first launch.
