Summary

In this chapter, we looked at how to create an Xcode project suitable for developing a universal application. We explored the initialization process of an iOS application, and saw where to start modifying the project to create the application we want. We looked at how XIB files and classes interact, and at how iOS exploits MVC with the UIViewController class. We created an application that seamlessly supports running on an iPhone or an iPad in all orientations, setting the stage for game development.
