#### I no longer have time to maintain this. If anyone wants to be added as a contributor so they can keep it up please reach out to me somehow or create an issue. The requirements are that these should not be blogs that just regurgitate what everyone else does. The resources added should be contributing unique thoughts and be written in a clear and concise manner.

# iOS-Learning-Resources

Big list of high-quality iOS learning resources including courses, blogs, newsletters, podcasts, and devloper communities



I have collected a list of quality iOS blogs, newsletters, courses etc to further your knowledge and stay on top of news. This is not a huge list of every resource out there by any means, but I think these are the best and more importantly I have tried to only include active sites. Most are free with the exception of a few course websites which are well worth the inexpensive monthly cost. Please let me know of others! twitter.com/earthabbey -- abbey @ abbeyjackson .ca



Before diving into iOS specific stuff, here are a list of resources to help people who are 100% new to programming get a feel for terminology and the way programming actually works:

* [tutorialspoint.com/developers_best_practices](http://www.tutorialspoint.com/developers_best_practices)

* [tutorialspoint.com/computer_glossary.htm](http://www.tutorialspoint.com/computer_glossary.htm)

* [learn.saylor.org/course/view.php?id=66](https://learn.saylor.org/course/view.php?id=66) (Elementary Data Structures -- this will help you greatly if you have no prior programming experience)



## Blogs:

Several blogs are tutorial based but because they do not have good organization of tutorial topics I have included them here rather than the "Course-like" section where the organized tutorial sites are.
