This book aims to provide beginners with an introduction to programming Mac OS X Apps with Cocoa, using XCode, the free developer tools provided by Apple, Inc. Some knowledge of another programming language, preferably Objective C Programming is assumed.
This wikibook was written for users of Mac OS X 10.3 or 10.4, it should also work for newer versions of Mac OS X such as 10.5 and 10.6. For programming Mac OS X with Cocoa for Beginners using Mac OS X versions 10.7 'Lion', or 10.8 'Mountain Lion' or later, use the following wikibook instead: Programming Mac OS X with Cocoa for Beginners 2nd Edition It is suggested that you upgrade to 10.8, 'Mountain Lion' because it is better supported by Apple.
In general, this text is written to be followed in order from start to finish. As each topic develops, it builds on the code written previously to add complexity and functionality.

Carbon is one of Apple ’s C-based application programming interfaces (APIs) for macOS (formerly Mac OS X), the operating system that powers Macintosh computers. Carbon provided a good degree of backward compatibility for programs that ran on Mac OS 8 and 9.
Getting Started
- The best-selling introduction to Cocoa, once again updated to cover the latest Mac programming technologies, and still enthusiastically recommended by experienced Mac OS X developers.
- I have been trying to learn how to program using Cocoa on my Mac OS X computer (Running Mac OS version 10.14.2) using Xcode (Running version 10.1) The challenge I have been having is finding up to date documentation. Most tutorials I can find are for Xcode version 3.x, which seems to not even apply to my version of Xcode, as they mention files.
- What is Cocoa?
- Installing the developer tools
