Demo App

What is App School?

The iPhone is the most interesting development platform since the advent of the internet. Combined with the iTunes App Store, developers can easily write and sell applications for the world’s most innovative mobile device. As Apple hosts and sells the Apps, developers can concentrate on creating interesting and beautiful applications without worrying about distribution costs or accounting.

App School teaches developers everything they need to know to produce their own apps—from writing their first lines of Objective-C to publishing their app in the iTunes App Store. The five days will include intensive hands-on tuition, allowing attendees to practise what they learn as they learn it. With course material designed by successful iPhone developers, App School also covers the non-obvious tricks of the trade, like how to maximise sales and distribution.

Who should attend App School?

Anyone interested in developing Apps, be they for business or personal use. The opportunity is there to develop Apps as an income stream for budding entrepreneurs. Academics may wish to include iPhone App development in their teaching.
