Chapter 3. Going beyond the basics with Xcode Interface Builder

 

This chapter covers

  • Mastering Interface Builder in Xcode 4
  • Using outlets and actions
  • Creating an application interface

One feature that many Mac applications have in common is a beautiful user interface (UI). The best UIs are strikingly beautiful, and, at the same time, they enhance the usability of the application. Crafting a unique and intuitive UI is no easy task, but expert developers understand that the UI can make the difference between a mediocre and a great application. The UI is one of the features that people have come to love about using a Mac. We should strive for the same excellence when building Cocoa applications with MacRuby.
