Good luck in finding your way around Cocoa. I love it, but it is a different way of thinking. Even for iPhone developers, I still recommend Aaron Hillegass's Cocoa Programming for Mac OS X as the best starting point. It's getting a little dated, but it continues to be the best reference I know. I've also heard good things about the Stanford online course through iTunes U, but I haven't checked it out myself yet.</p> Thanks for visiting. Good luck in finding your way around Cocoa.

I’m having some hard time trying to find a good material that makes smooth landing on the UIKit jumping from Foundation and cli practices.
