About the Book
UPDATE: If you like the look of this book you should check out the new version - it's a blog series all about iOS8, excitingly titled "iOS8: Day by Day". You can read it in blog form at shinobicontrols.com/iOS8DayByDay
Apple introduced iOS7 to the world in September 2013, and with it came the biggest visual refresh of the operating system since it was launched. However, not only did the UI get a complete revamp, many new frameworks, API and features were added for developers to take advantage of in their apps.
iOS7: Day by Day takes a stroll through this new functionality from a developer perspective. Each chapter takes a look at a different feature, with code and a sample app to aid demonstration. The chapters are detailed enough to allow a reader to get up to speed on complex APIs, but are sufficiently short that they can be digested on a daily schedule.
The book covers all the major new frameworks - from CoreText to MultipeerConnectivity, and digs into lots of the hidden gems which developers are going to love.
This book is available in paper form on lulu if you prefer reading something other than a screen.
