Introduction to the AppKit

  • Chapter
Learn Objective-C on the Mac

Abstract

So far in this book, all our programs have used the Foundation Kit and have communicated with us through the time- honored method of sending text output to the console. That’s fine for getting your feet wet, but the real fun begins when you see a Mac- like interface that includes things you can click and play with. We’ll take a detour in this chapter to show you some highlights of the Application Kit (or AppKit), Cocoa’s user- interface treasure trove.
