What’s the best way to start writing an iOS app?

The best way to start writing an iOS app is to use Apple's native SDKs, which provide all the necessary tools and frameworks. You can use Swift, SwiftUI, and Xcode to build your app. SwiftUI, in particular, is highly recommended for building apps across all Apple devices due to its ease of use and advanced features.

Here are some steps to get you started:

1. Launch Xcode: Begin by launching Xcode, Apple's integrated development environment (IDE).
2. Create a New Project: Start with an empty project in Xcode.
3. Use SwiftUI: SwiftUI is a powerful framework that allows you to build user interfaces in a declarative way. It integrates seamlessly with the underlying OS and supports features like dark mode, dynamic type, and more.
4. Follow Tutorials: Apple provides excellent tutorials and documentation to guide you through building different apps using SwiftUI.
