Awesome!

by Kinetic Talk

Great job on this podcasts. I hope the author will continue producing them.

Excellent Beginning for the Series -- can't wait for more!

by Alex Cardelle

I'm basically a novice at understanding XCode, but this series by LastEdit like it will become my new weekly lesson. The first episode was great at explaining the different panes and interfaces one has to deal with when beginning to program with the language. I hope the second episode stays as on-track as the first!

Very informative and easy to understand.

by Mike Loiterman

I've played around with a lot of xcode tutorials and these are the best, by a large margin. They really get you into the nitty gritty of application creation right out of the gate. It would be helpful to spend a bit more time going into the differences and uses of methods, classes, instances, with a real example that makes it crystal clear how they work. I'm a novice programmer, so those concepts, how they relate to one another, and how I would use them are not completely clear in my mind yet. Also, I would love to see some additional stuff on iPhone programming. Please continue!
