Learn Cocoa on the Mac
I first encountered Cocoa as a college student in about 1989. Of course, that was before the iPhone, before Mac OS X, and before it was even called Cocoa. Back then, the seed of today’s Cocoa was a part of NeXTStep, the OS that was the core of the NeXT computers. NeXTStep was years ahead of its t...
