Hour 6. Model-View-Controller Application Design

What You’ll Learn in This Hour:

• What the Model-View-Controller design pattern means

• Ways in which Xcode implements MVC

• Design of a basic view

• Implementation of a corresponding view controller

You’ve come a long way in the past few hours: You’ve provisioned your iDevice for development, learned the basics of the Objective-C language, explored Cocoa Touch, and gotten a feel for Xcode and the Interface Builder Editor. Although you’ve already used a few prebuilt projects, you have yet to build one from scratch. That’s about to change.

In this hour, you learn about the application design pattern known as Model-View-Controller and create an iOS application from start to finish.
