Mastering Xcode 4 focuses on the Xcode IDE. You will learn how to install, configure, and use Xcode to create and maintain projects, and to edit, debug, analyze, profile, build, and deploy your code. You’ll learn to use Xcode’s integrated Source Code Management system support (for Git and Subversion), create and maintain rich user interfaces with Interface Builder, build data models with the Core Data model editor, and use the iOS device simulator to test your iOS apps. You’ll learn all about Xcode’s new Schemes-based build system and explore several ways you can hook your own scripts into the build chain. In short, you’ll learn all about your primary development tool.
