 • '''Master-Detail Application''' – Used to create a list based application. Selecting an item from a master list displays a detail view corresponding to the selection. The template then provides a Back button to return to the list. You may have seen a similar technique used for news based applications, whereby selecting an item from a list of headlines displays the content of the corresponding news article. When used for an iPad based application this template implements a basic split-view configuration.
 • '''Page-based Application''' – Creates a template project using the page view controller designed to allow views to be transitioned by turning pages on the screen.
 • '''Tabbed Application''' – Creates a template application with a tab bar. The tab bar typically appears across the bottom of the device display and can be programmed to contain items that, when selected, change the main display to different views. The iPhone’s built-in Phone user interface, for example, uses a tab bar to allow the user to move between favorites, contacts, keypad and voicemail.

 • '''Sticker Pack Application''' – Allows a sticker pack application to be created and sold within the Message App Store. Sticker pack apps allow additional images to be made available for inclusion in messages sent via the iOS Messages app.

 Just about every activity related to developing and testing iOS applications involves the use of the Xcode environment. This chapter is intended to serve two purposes. Primarily it is intended to provide an overview of many of the key areas that comprise the Xcode development environment. In the course of providing this overview, the chapter will also work through the creation of a very simple iOS application project designed to display a label which reads “Hello World” on a colored background.
 By the end of this chapter you will have a basic familiarity with Xcode and your first running iOS application.
