When developing something in a language that you're not so experienced with, looking for the examples and digging them deeply is a good way of learning.
Same with the iPhone application development and considering it is something new for many developers, viewing the codes of real-world applications and re-using them when needed is very valuable.
Here are 20+ open source iPhone apps to learn and get inspired from:
-
WordPress for iOS
The official WordPress application for iOS.Besides strong content or comment editing features, it can share your location while publishing a post as well (download exists under the "development menu").

HJCache is an iOS library that makes it very easy to asynchronously load images from URLs, display them in smooth scrolling tables, and cache the images in file storage. Think about any app that loads lots of images over the net and displays them as you use the app: eg scrolling through a list of tweets or facebook posts; swiping through a photo album from a remote server. For apps like that you want the images to load asynchronously in the background so that a slow network connection doesn’t make the UI freeze. You also maybe want :
- To cache them locally so they appear faster the next time the app is used;
- The cache can trim its size;
- The images to be shared within the app, eg so that if you are looking at a list of posts by the same person, their profile pic is loaded and just once and the UIImage object is shared;
- That interrupted downloads don’t mess up the cache with incomplete images;
- That normal memory management just works, even though an object in one place may also be shared in other places, and in different parts of the cache.
- Restrict use of the network to images that are on the screen now, if for example you scroll though a long table of images, the one’s that the user scrolled past and are not off the top of the screen don’t need to be loaded.
- Allow images to finish loading to the cache in some cases, even if the views they will be used in are removed because the user went back to a previous screen right away.
- Sometimes load a few image ahead of when they are needed, eg for a swipe through photo album.
HJCache implements all this and more. (BTW, HJCache was first called HJ Object Manager, it’s the same things and the class names didn’t change.)
HJCache is free to use in free or paid iOS and Mac apps, and its been in use in one form or another since 2009 in several commercial iPhone apps made by us. For example we use it in our own app Focus for Facebook. The basis of HJCache is explained in this blog post ‘Asynchronous Image Loading in UITableView‘, but its come a long way since then.
Enumerating all the Keys and Values
Sometime, you need to iterate over all the key/value pairs in a dictionary. To do this, you use the method -allKeys to retrieve an array of all the keys in the dictionary; this array contains all the keys, in no particular (ie random) order. You can then cycle over this array, and for each key retrieve its value. The following example prints out all the key-values in a dictionary:
{
NSArray *keys;
int i, count;
id key, value;
keys = [dict allKeys];
count = [keys count];
for (i = 0; i < count; i++)
{
key = [keys objectAtIndex: i];
value = [dict objectForKey: key];
NSLog (@"Key: %@ for value: %@", key, value);
}
}
As usual, this code is just an example of how to enumerate all the entries in a dictionary; in real life, to get a description of a NSDictionary, you just do NSLog (@"%@", myDictionary);.
