CocoaHeads
CocoaHeads is a group devoted to discussion of Apple Computer’s Cocoa Framework for programming on iOS and MacOS X. During monthly meetings, members present on their projects and offer tutorials on various programming topics.
This is the website of the Melbourne CocoaHeads chapter. There are other Cocoaheads groups operating in Sydney and Canberra and an Australian-wide email list at CocoaheadsAu.
You can follow Melbourne Cocoaheads on Twitter @melbournecocoa
Who Should Join?
Anyone with a mac who writes code. We don’t care if you’ve never written a line of Objective-C before or if you’ve got an application out in the wild making you money.
We’re about building a community of like minded developers in Melbourne, and we would love for you to be a part of that.
History
The Melbourne Chapter of Cocoaheads was founded by Gareth Townsend shortly after WWDC 2007 which he attended on an AUC scholarship. Lets just say he drank a little too much cool-aid and brought some back to Melbourne.
In January 2011 Sean Woodhouse (@seanwoodhouse) from Itty Bitty Apps took on organising the monthy meetings and Oliver Jones (@orj) started producing our presentation videos. We also have regular hack nights at Joe’s Garage in Fitzroy on the last Tuesday of the month, organised by Marcus Crafter (@crafterm).
