Kicking Ass with Monotouch
A few days ago I was lucky to become a part of the Monotouch beta program and I must say that I cannot believe how cool it is so far. I have seen a few screencasts from people making hello world (or really button press counter) apps and thought, “Hell, I was going through the Stanford Iphone class, why not do all the assignments using Monotouch?” Last night I ran through Assignment 2B and I am going to attempt a screencast with my very best Ron Burgundy voice in the next few days. I will tag any posts related to this endeavor with ‘monotouch’ so feel free to follow along.
If anyone has some suggestions for good screen recording software on OSX feel free to comment, I am new to the mac world and have only ever used Camtasia on windows.
Also expect a post soon giving a run down of my experience and what I hope any posts I make gains in terms of feedback. I will say though that I am by no means an expert and anything I code might not be best practice. If you have a better/different way of doing anything please give me some feedback as my first motive in this is improving myself and any help I can give anyone else through this is just gravy on the potatoes.
Hi,
What recommendations did you get for screen capturing (I’ve used camtasia on windows too and recently got a macbook)?
Cheers
John
I am trying out Screenflow, so far it is great. A little pricey though. Sorry about the comment being moderated too, changed that until it actually becomes a problem.
I ran across a your examples and videos on youtube. I can’t seem to find too many examples on Monotouch out there. Do you have any suggestions on where to look for more hardcore use of the Framework?
