November 22nd, 2009What Hardware Do I Need To Write Iphone Apps?
Is iPhone app development all done on some kind of desktop computer emulator, for ease? Do I need an iPhone, but with some kind of extra hardware to upload my code as I debug? How does it work? What hardware/software do I need?

You won’t need any hardware (physical equipment). You will need software (programs). I recommend Apple’s iPhone programming software at http://developer.apple.com/iPhone/progra…
This will allow you to write, test and debug programs, all without the ue of your own iPhone. This is done similarly to any other programming application.

You need an Intel Mac with OS X 10.5 or later and the Xcode tools and iPhone SDK from Apple (free). You can use the simulator that comes with the SDK for initial development and testing but ultimately you will need a real iPhone or iPod Touch.

You need a Mac, unfortunately (in order to run the SDK). It is a good idea to have an iPhone but I do not believe it is required.
