Starting a new Xcode project from a template vs. a blank project
- by Dr Dork
I sometimes find it's easier to create a new project from scratch in other IDEs simply because its often more difficult to understand and tweak the generated template code than it is to write the code you need from scratch.
Do seasoned iPhone developers still use templates when creating new projects?
How difficult is it to add functionality to a template project that isn't initially included in the template? For example, if I don't check the "Use Core Data" option when creating a new project, how difficult does that make it to use Core Data later on if I changed my mind?
