This is a great list! Here are some tools that I have also found useful that I don't see on the list:

Dash[1] - Quickly check documentation (like, really quickly)

objc.io[2] - Great reading on iOS and OS X APIs

HockeyApp[3] - Service similar to Testflight

I've been meeting to get Dash after hearing about it on a recent podcast (can't remember which one though). Assuming since it's in your "toolbox" you enjoy using it?


Dash's search speed puts Xcode to shame. It makes development much, much quicker for me.


Dash is still good but not quite as essential with Xcode 5 which is MUCH faster than Xcode 4 for documentation searching.

Dash also has all the other docs you need (C/C++ standard libraries, SQLite and Flask/Postgres/etc. for the server side and even man pages).


And in two days you will not be allowed to submit apps built with Xcode < 5 to AppStore.


Dash is wonderful. If you use Alfred, there's a fantastic workflow you can get set up as well.
