Originally the software was called SOS Interface, and was created by Jean-Marie Hullot whilst he was a researcher at Inria at Rocquencourt near Paris. He was allowed to retain ownership of the software upon resigning from Inria, and spent a year working it into a fully-featured product, now named Interface Builder [1] and distributed for Macintosh by ExperTelligence in the USA in 1986.

Core Data can serialize objects into XML, binary, or SQLite for storage. [2] With the release of Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard, developers can also create their own custom atomic store types. Each method carries advantages and disadvantages, such as being human readable (XML) or more memory efficient (SQLite).
One notable feature is 'Export to Xcode'. A sample Xcode project is created with C source code to initialize OpenGL (using the GLUT library) and run the shader program. Note that this program is no longer recommended for editing GLSL shaders as "GLSLEditorSample," available as an example program, is generally regarded as superior.

The XML format supports non-ASCII characters and storing NSValue objects (which, unlike GNUstep's ASCII property list format, Apple's ASCII property list format does not support). [ 10 ] Since XML files, however, are not the most space-efficient means of storage, Mac OS X 10.2 introduced a new format where property list files are stored as ...
Cocoa is Apple's native object-oriented application programming interface (API) for its desktop operating system macOS.. Cocoa consists of the Foundation Kit, Application Kit, and Core Data frameworks, as included by the Cocoa.h header file, and the libraries and frameworks included by those, such as the C standard library and the Objective-C runtime.
Apple has also included versions of iWork, iMovie, and GarageBand for free with new device activations since 2013. However, these programs are maintained independently from the operating system itself. [1] Similarly, Xcode is offered for free on the Mac App Store and receives updates independently of the operating system despite being tightly ...
Apple provides free tutorials and guide support for their developer program. In the beginning of July 2023, Apple finished construction on their Developer Center in Cupertino, California. [5] During special events, developers are able to visit the center for one-on-one’s with Apple employees, demos of upcoming software, and more.
