Tim and all,
Thanks for the great info. The course doesn’t start until October, So I’m still pondering but sounds like all the tools are there to get started with development.

Hi, Xcode on Mac is perfectly accessible. The problem will arise when using the simulator to test your code. That, being that it is a graphic representation of an iPad or iPhone, is not accessible. You can though directly install your coded app directly onto your iPad or iPhone and determine things from there. Of course, this is not necessarily the most secure way of testing things as you could be putting an app onto your device that is flawed. In most cases though, the coding you’d be doing in a introductory course should not hurt anything on your device.

How accessible is Xcode on the Mac when it comes to building an app for iPhone? Also, I’ll be using a MBA with 8 GB of RAM and 512GB SSD. Do you think the above is OK for development? Kind wishes if you can help. Respectfully, Sadam Ahmed -- The following information is important for all members of the Mac Visionaries list.
