Developing for iPhone is done by an SDK from Apple’s developer web site. This SDK will only work on Mac OS X Leopard 10.5. You are free to rgitseer and download the SDK at no charge, build your app, and test it on your device, however submitting it to Apple is much more work.Applications are created and run by Cocoa. Cocoa is the core system for the iPhone’s platform that deals with Apps. You should download the SDK and read up on other sites that deal with Apple’s application developing programs to learn more..=]
