Good thing about working with people from different backgrounds is, you learn a lot. In a recent major platform, I was involved with 5 different architects from different backgrounds. It was impressive to see how everybody sees their world differently.
Did you know that there are probably 50 platforms are out there to build iPhone apps.
iPhone/iPad app market has been one of the hottest software
development market recently. With the popularity of Facebook, Zynga, Twitter,
Angry Birds and many others, companies have totaled billions of dollars in app
revenue. As published by app-store-metrics,
as of today, App Store has 632,929 total apps with 495,516 active downloadable
apps.
As a developer, I was always curious to know and learn about
various platforms available to build iPhone/iPad applications. As a matter of
fact, I have personally used two of them when we were building our C# Corner
iPhone app.
So briefly, here is a quick list of various
platforms/products/APIs to build iPhone/iPad apps.
