Is there a tutorial on GUI coding without an inaccessible Builder interface?

I am completely blind and want to encode iOS and / or OS X. In Xcode 5.1, accessibility is improved, but the interface designer still seems inaccessible to voice recording users (for example, me).

With that in mind, is there a tutorial for encoding OS X and iPhone applications without using an interface in Xcode? Alternatively, is there a way to use the interface builder with scoring (no sight)? I would really like to use gui tools if they exist, but if I have to hardcode this thing, let it be.

Thank you in advance!

I did not listen to him, but listened to the next podcast. The description indicates that it covers the basics of the interface. http://maccessibility.net/2013/01/17/the-maccessibility-dev-podcast-1-using-xcode-with-voiceover/

In my opinion, you should just code the interface.

Firstly, auto-shutdown makes this much more reasonable than in the past. The "visual" language of restrictions is truly symbolic; made for you.

Secondly, the snap panel will simply not work for you. Bad design, I think. But we are here. Use the API.

A number of prominent coders, including Brent Simmons (netnewswire, vesper), are unlikely to use the interface builder. Everything will be fine with you.

You might want to consider RubyMotion as an alternative.

Austin Serafin talks about using RubyMotion as a covert developer in this MP3 slide talk here at # inspect2013. I found the conversation through a blog post that mentioned Austin's amazing presentation.

To use pure Xcode, I tried experimenting with PaintCode, but it was useless in Voice Over mode. You can find Eric Sadun's book on automatic layout, which details the code approach. Link iBooks to the second edition here .

I am confused by the effort that people like Austin put forward to overcome their obstacles and try to remember this when I am annoyed by minor inconveniences in my life and software development. It seems to me that I want to say thank you, but I would like to express my congratulations on what you have achieved so far.
