Monotouch for the iPhone @ Dallas C# SIG on 12/3/2009 by Casey Watson

Another in the series of UG presentations that I have recorded for INETA Live.

Abstract:

Curious about MonoTouch? You're not alone. Join us at the Dallas C# SIG as we take a close look at this groundbreaking platform and learn how to build rich iPhone applications using C#. We'll start by discussing the basics of MonoTouch and quickly move on to building a simple application. We'll also discuss some of the advancements that have been made with the most recent version of the platform. If you've ever been interested in developing software for the iPhone but don't have the time to learn a new language, this session should help set you down the right path.

# Why not just use Objective C?


It's the native language for the platform, and there are no costs involved.

RE: Why not just use Objective C?

Some people, like me, don't know Objective C, and/or have vast libraries in .NET that they can use with the MONO product. All things considered, I think giving the developer the power of choice is a good thing.
