Good ways to Learn Cocoa? [closed]

Answer 1

I have been working on learning Cocoa myself recently and have found Apple's own Cocoa resources to be incredibly helpful.

For example projects I have spent quite a bit of time in the Adium source. Adium is a relatively large project so I am very often able to find examples of whichever concept I am interested in.

The CocoaDev wiki can also be quite useful.

Answer 2

Andy Matuschak has a great blog post that leads you through several good Cocoa tutorials, explaining why you are reading each one.

Cocoa Dev Central has loads of tutorials.

For books, I echo Dave and Phillip Bowden with Cocoa Programming for Mac OS X by Aaron Hillegass.

Answer 3

Cocoa Programming for Mac OS X is a great book that covers Objective-C and many of the frameworks that make up Cocoa. Most Cocoa programmers I know learned from this book (including myself). The third edition was released recently, so it's fairly up to date. Good luck.

Answer 4

Best books I encountered are those from Apress, in this case : Beginning iPhone 4 Development. Was much clearer to me than those from O'Reilly
