Greetings: Create the Application

1 Creation:

Fire up XCode (*/Developer/Appliations/XCode.app*) and create a new Project (File -> New Project | Command-Shift-N). Select the *View Based Application* template which is providing you with a skeleton of a *Single View* application:

Now enter *iGreetings* as the name of the project in any location you like. After you hit *Ok* button you should see the XCode IDE that looks like this:

1 Environment Review

Before we go any further should familiarize yourself with the [XCode Development Environment>iPhone Dev.XCode Development Environment] because it will help you to navigate through the IDE and help you understand better why the application is created this way.
