@brentsimmons@davemark David: Which of your books on Amazon is the best start for someone who wants to start dev on macOS / iOS? :) - View other replies

@ToniWonKanobi And if your reader is starting from scratch, Learn C on the Macintosh is pretty evergreen and introduces basic dev concepts -
@davemark Well, the reader is actually me (:D). I know a lot about some front-end web dev/design (HTML/CSS), but that’s about it. - View other replies

@ToniWonKanobi Start with Learn C. It will give you some foundational knowledge. Then find an intro to Swift book or dig into Apple’s… -
@davemark Sounds good :) (Any reason to have the paper book version in lieu of an iBooks version—not sure if there is one?) -
@ToniWonKanobi No. Depends on your reading preferences. I am exclusively eBooks now. -
@davemark Cool. Thanks so much for your advice :) -
@ToniWonKanobi Paying it forward! :)
