People love using the Mac because it’s advanced, yet simple. Developers love creating for the Mac because, well... it’s advanced, yet simple. Yes, developing on Mac OS X is very much like using a Mac. The result? You’ll work faster, more efficiently, and frustration-free.

It’s uncomplicated.

Like everything in the Mac universe, developing for Mac OS X Leopard is to the point and perfectly simple. It’s drag-and-drop, graphical and streamlined for the way you work. When it’s easy to do your work, you probably do it better.

It’s complete.

Compilers. Scripting languages. Debugging tools. Performance optimisation tools. Whether you’re developing desktop apps (Xcode) or developing widgets for Dashboard (Dashcode), everything you need is included on the Mac OS X Leopard disc.

It’s well designed.

Mac OS X Leopard gives you an integrated experience that puts all the tools in front of you. Better still, it’s an experience as polished as the ones you want to create. Interface Builder works like a design tool. Debugging is graphical.

It’s web-ified.

Leopard features great HTML and CSS editing, a JavaScript debugger, and some of the most popular web development frameworks — including PHP and Ruby on Rails. Because Leopard is born of the Mac values of simplicity and design, you don’t have to waste time installing or deciphering. Just let your imagination get to work.

It’s reassuring.

You’re never alone when you develop with Mac OS X. The Leopard DVD includes instructions and reference materials. And you can access the extensive resources at the Apple Developer Connection directly from Xcode.
