      Hey there - some free(ish) MacOS developer tools can be found here: https://developer.apple.com/devcenter/mac/index.action
      Back in the day, Apple offer SDK resources for free. Indeed, many iOS dev kits can also be found for free out on the internets. I'll check a few places and post what's relevant here.

        Here's something handy - xCode for iOS development. Can be downloaded for free here

            Yes, but not a high-end one. 😉

              I personally have avoided iOS so far. Maybe not entirely due to a distaste for it though. Maybe more because I have been financially challenged for the majority of my life and my tech career has centered around windows. I'm open to it, partially, just would be starting from scratch from an IT perspective. Plus for the fact that everything I support is Windows, I don't think it'd be feasible to use for a work machine.

                But you work for an officially all iOS company. No one has reported any limitations on it. What do you think it won't do?

                  by the way, @scottalanmiller what time is it there? haha jjust wondering you're still awake. 🙂

                  We just went into "Daylight Savings Time" and I am in the New York City area. So now, and until around October, I will be exactly twelve hours behind you. So it is just after noon there, so it is just after midnight here.

                  AJ in in Dallas, one hour behind me. So he is thirteen hours off from you at the moment. It is twenty till midnight there.

                  I was wondering this and was too lazy (can lie and say busy) to check myself. Just one hour off from Japan (GMT+9) which I am used to calculating already.

                    @pol-darreljade Android wins, hands down.

                    Ahhh.. Buyers of iOS are more generous than Buyers of Android. haha

                    That's a great example. I've been talking to people about something related to this all week. If your customers choose you because you are cheap, they won't likely be good customers for other things.

                    Yes. Indeed.

                    My boss (owner) and myself will agree with this. That is why he bought me a MacBook Pro instead of a Windows laptop when I need a new laptop. Now just to get off my ass and code something up.

                      Thanks for this. But at my age, 20 y/o, I really cant afford to buy this toolkits.

                        Mac and iOS development are very expensive thing.

                        What languages do you know?

                            What kind of development do you do? Mostly web stuff like asp.net and MVC?
