i know enough c already i just want a noob baby primer on osx coding so i can tinker with touch events, cocoa less so i just figured a simple ui would make visualising it easier the point where ill be way over my head is when i try to make a touch controlled midi synth but thats probably more of a winter project

why isn't there a widespread movement to manage the expectations of customers since they all seem to think that software is easy

yep software is not easy and i'm wrong because i didn't know the syntax for a dynamically allocated matrix in C one time. Also I make a point of saying that I am not a mast3r cod3r and I am literally in college u mad tho
