L2P: Pax East and Xcode 4

So L2P is going on a bit of hiatus till next Wednesday due to Pax East 2011. I’m looking forward to the developer sessions they are going to have, and some of the other dev centric things going on along side all the awesome gaming!

So whats coming up next for the L2P? We are going to be playing around with our class and expanding upon it, then using it to learn some logic. Then we will build a basic iPhone app before hopping into the CS193P Stanford classes. The good news, the Spring 2011 section of CS193p is starting on March 29th, and I’ll do my best to keep up with them.

Also interesting is the release of Xcode 4. There are some very compelling reasons to upgrade, most importantly that the new LLVM compiler should produce faster code. One surprising thing is that its free to registered paid developers, but its $4.99 though the app store if your not a paid dev. I’ll probably upgrade since I know I’m going to need it, but its a odd move considering it was free in the past. It’s still a steal at $4.99 for what you get. It’s just a bit of a barrier for people to get into iOS/OSX development.

Cya next Wednesday!
