The Pragmatic Programmers are quickly becoming the place for Mac and iPhone Development information. They are publishing a bunch of books and now screencasts to help developers get up to speed quickly with Cocoa and its supporting technologies.
This past week, I bought the “Becoming Production in Xcode” screencast with Mike Clark and found it to be a great resource for all sorts of productivity tips.
Coming from my Java background, I had gotten very use to using IDEA from JetBrains. The switch to Xcode has been a bit painful trying to get my file/code navigation skills back. These first screencast showed me all the bits I need to get back to the productivity I was used to for navigating code. The second one provided me all the information I needed for all the text macro things I was missing. As well as showing how quickly and easily it is to get the new clang code analysis tool integrated into the build process.
The screencasts are worth the $5 each (for a total of $10 for both episodes). I highly recommend you pick them up. I’m sure even a veteran of Xcode would find something new in there they weren’t aware of.
