Development Stack for iOS Mobile App

Programming Languages

  • The two most popular languages for iOS mobile app development today are Objective-C and Swift. I chose the newer iOS programming language Swift because it is more functional and offers a less error-prone code. This is because of its inline support for manipulating text strings and data and includes dynamic libraries uploaded directly to memory, which eventually reduces the size of the app, which then enhances the app’s performance.

Toolkit

  • Once I decided to work with Swift to create my own native iOS mobile application, I also chose to work with Apple XCode. It is a full-featured toolkit or a development environment that lets you build mobile apps and desktop applications.

Software Development Kit

  • The iOS Software development kit comes with an Application Programming Interface that works as a link between the software applications and their platform.
