Future Paths

Abstract

You’ve now reached the final chapter of Learn Cocoa on the Mac! Hopefully you now have a good feel for how Cocoa works and how the various parts can be used to write all sorts of interesting desktop applications. However, the Cocoa frameworks are really huge, and we’ve only scratched the surface on most of the classes and concepts we’ve covered. This book was never meant to be an encyclopedic Cocoa reference (you’ve already got that on your computer, installed with Xcode), but rather a guide to help you find your way. Continuing in that spirit, we’re going to wrap up the book with an overview of additional techniques and resources that will help you take your Cocoa development efforts above and beyond what we’ve covered so far.
