Become an XCoder

Thursday, 06 March 2008

While we are all pretty handy with a screwdriver and a Dremel, I want to take my modding to the next level. The way I want to go is software, I want to build the software to run the way I want it to run. Often times I find a good app, but it does something I hate, does one thing shy of perfect, or cost to much money. No more.

With the help of an open-source book I will learn to write my own damn apps. Booya! Take a look at cocoalab.com. Offers a free open-source "How to be an XCoder". View it online or download as a PDF (only 2MB). Take a look, and as you are showing off your next cool hardware mod, show off your new app also.

	Smultron is one of the best coding applications I've found... It has Syntax highlighting, code verification, a sidebar for switching between files when you need several open at once and also offers a tabs option (better than multiple windows), and markup templates. Oh, and it also compiles. http://smultron.sourceforge.net/ Registered
