Real Machine running Hellowrold program

If the simulator is running, create a new project with Xcode or download the demo online can be run directly, but the real machine debugging is required to configure the certificate, the individual developers can only use a certificate for a Mac, the company developers may form a development team, the team of everyone without additional pay, Share the same certificate, each person can use the company's certificate for a Mac, if the Xcode certificate configuration is complete, you can run the real machine, configuration reference tutorial, the tutorial is the old tutorial, Member Center interface is also revised, but the principle is the same. With the project we will consider versioning, create a new private project on Oschina, configure SSH key, git management with Soursetree visualizer, git configuration reference Oschina help documentation. GitHub is a GitHub for Mac client that avoids the steps of SSH configuration and facilitates the management and downloading of projects.

Postscript

iOS development threshold is higher, performance in hardware price, Mac computer and iphone are two large, learning books, video good also need to pay, but also have a certain English and Computer Foundation, the most important thing is to have a lasting learning enthusiasm. Of course, if you really want to screw a little, the most economical way is to pack a black Apple, at least borrow a iPhone4 (iOS7) or iphone4s (iOS8), make a second-hand iphone is OK, I think pure development does not need to buy a new machine, then the developer account, Do not want to pay but want to debug the real machine, Xcode and iphone are jailbroken, the Internet has a certificate-free real-Computer debugging tutorial (reference tutorial) so the developer account money can be saved, the book can see free pdf ebook, also useful points to download or buy on a treasure, Geek College also has free VIP can be brushed. To save money, to have a certain technology, but also to spend more time.
