How to connect DataBase to iphone App.

Hi guys, Just wanted a suggestion . I am trying to build a recipes app for iphone. Its has a table view just some what similar to the Blog Reader App. I am planning to add about 100 Recipes. I have heard that adding a database to the ios app , helps in better storing of the data and faster retrieval as well. Do you think that I should go with a Database and if yes then how??? I mean is there a link in treehouse where they teach us in how to connect the database to ios app..

Thanks....

check out the Build A Self Destructing Message App project. It walks you through using parse.com as its backend database. Parse is very easy to use and get up and running. I would do that project to get a general idea of how to use parse within your app.

Hi Stone.. I always appreciate your prompt Responses.. SO you mean to say that doing the Build A Self Destructing Message App project will help me in learning the database connection... I will sure go through that.... Thanks!!!!!!

yes it will help you learn how to use a database within your app.

Thanks Stone ... I really appreciate your prompt help!!!!!!
