Work in Progress, chapter structure and content is subject to change as it is in very preliminary stages

You can post your questions / problems / suggestions / sample code / corrections on this link given below I would try to get a solution and also add it to this book and the accompanying code. Every contribution would be attributed.

I like https://github.com/visionmedia/masteringnode system of building book(generously copying its code and structure) which is easy to build and publish.

No IDE or Windows machine were tortured while writing this book.

Initially started with the idea of writing the book with cookbook format, but based on initial feedback it is now written for first time iOS developer who know some ruby approach, book title may change
