title: What is the easiest way for a non-programmer to learn the basics of iPhone App creation?
body: <p>I'm primarily a designer, with a fairly high level of understanding of CSS and HTML. I have an idea for a very simple iPhone app, largely involving a timer, an animated graphic, and some sound. If I get more advanced there could be some simple customization settings </p>
  
  <p>I have no understanding of Objective C, or C of any kind for that matter. (The closest I got was a Pascal course 20 years ago.) Aside from befriending a developer with motivation to help me out, what would be the simplest, most likely method of learning the minimum I need to know to create my own iPhone App?</p>
