Native iOS is written using Objective-C and / or the newer language... Swift. You can also write in another language that will convert to native iOS languages like C# in Xamarin or JavaScript with React Native.

H... At first, I thought you had to be mistaken. I decided to do a search and was surprised by the results. https://medium.com/@mateusz_bartos/write-ios-apps-in-java-along-with-android-900d6013f83f It looks like Java is converted to native iOS using the Multi-OS Engine framework and Xcode. This is the equivalent to how Xamarin works with C#. I probably should have known this. However, I avoid Java development at all costs, I've definitely fallen behind on latest capabilities available today. Anyway, thanks for teaching me something new today. ;)

Swift.Sololearn offers a course that can be complemented with the documentation offered by Apple: https://developer.apple.com/library/content/referencelibrary/GettingStarted/DevelopiOSAppsSwift/

Oh... it should be noted that you'll need a Mac with XCode to build and deploy your iOS app. I've heard of people using Hackintoshes (hacked Macs on PC hardware). However, I've only heard these being problematic. It's been several years though and things might have gotten better since then.

Yeah, Hackintosh is a headache (I had one, fortunately all my components were compatible) Although there seems to be a way https://blog.udemy.com/xcode-on-windows/

@Mickel... That's good to know if I ever decide to stop developing on a MacBook Pro.
