So its week 3 of my last ever winter vacation of my undergrad life and as a senior I should have a lot of things to do AKA job applications. But who wants to do job applications.... Now that I have a week and a half left before school starts, what else can I do? None of my friends are around anymore so I decided to start learning how to make an app.
I have a general idea of what kind of app I want to make. It all started out with me already worrying about how I'm going to make friends in a completely new city after I graduate. There are a lot of online dating sites out there but even if I try to use Tinder to make a new friend, it's probably not going to work. I haven't figured out much yet but it'll most likely be a similar interface with similar functions but for a different purpose.
Other than a year's worth of experience coding in high school I don't remember much about how to write code (what was a boolean again?) but that was 5 years ago. An iphone app is a completely different story.
Looking through some tutorials, it seems like I need to use this thing called Xcode. It looks pretty user friendly which is a relief! I will download that right now, but I also need to download the new OS Mavericks for it to be compatible so I will go do that. Hopefully it doesn't screw up my computer.
