The "For Dummies" series has been around so long, I can't even remember what the first entry was. I think it involved Windows 98. As technology has grown, so has the book series. Which is now a website you can visit for quick tips upon trying something for the first time, or simply needing a quick piece of info.


They now have an iPhone Application Development For Dummies, which provides some quick and easy tips to keep in mind while developing for the iPhone. The link provided takes you to a cheat sheet the 'For Dummies' team provides for free.

Here are a few of the quick tips you can find on the cheat sheet:

- Know when to use subclassing, and how to customize the behaviors while developing.

- Here's a list of properties you'll want to subclass:

UIView - creates content views

UIViewController - manage content views

NSObject - create model views and delegates

- Upon subclassing, target-action patterns are the next step when programming for the iPhone. There's a long list of target actions, visit the page if you need a refresher in them.

There's a lot more information to be read on the Dummies' cheat sheet. While most of this information is known by experienced developers, it's a good place to start for beginners who are learning the language.

For experienced developers, the cheat sheet provides a quick guide to reference when stuck with a particular piece of code. Whatever your experience level is, some form of use can be found with this sheet.
