Frequently asked questions
This is a one-stop-shop for developers building applications for Apple platforms on the IBM Cloud. Build cloud-native, production-ready applications without the need to search through documentation to find what applies to Apple development. Virtually everything an Apple developer needs to build a cloud-native, full-stack application can be found in the console.
Using the aggregation of all related documentation, you’re guided through setting up your development environment; deploying to Kubernetes, Cloud Foundry or OpenWhisk; and using or adding SDKs. Follow the documentation and walk through a self-explanatory UI to generate and deploy a preconfigured application.
Other cloud platforms do not offer a comprehensive view for Apple developers. IBM Cloud makes it easier so developers can spend more time in Apple’s integrated development environment for macOS — Xcode — and less time in the deep corners of documentation.
Developers can instantly start coding in Xcode and innovating with IBM Cloud services like IBM Watson Visual Recognition and IBM® Push Notifications. It’s not necessary to spend days or weeks combing through documentation and setting up a development environment.
By helping developers build quicker and easier with a specifically curated experience to develop native iOS apps that connect to the IBM Cloud, enterprises reduce development costs.
