Introducing Xcode 4
Xcode is Apple's free suite of developer tools; it is used to create applications for iOS mobile devices and for Mac OS X. Xcode 4, shown in Figure 1.1, is the most recent version and is a radical update with many new features.
Developer tools are complex, and Xcode has always tried to hide much of that complexity from novice developers. You can use Xcode in a very simple click-to-build way, but this simplicity can be misleading.
