Steps To Develop Your iOS Apps :
1. Create a folder ,in that you will store your all files and images.
2. First file that corona SDK will execute is always main.lua file. From main.lua you can go to any of the file with the help of two methods:
a.)You can use director class.
b.)You can use storyboard APIs.My personal choice is storyboard way because I felt it more systematic.
3. For every screen, one file is used.
now you know how it flow but its the time to know what you gonna show.
a.)To display image following syntax is used:
local background = display.newImage("a.png");
background.x = 0;
background.y = 0;
This line of code will display a new image to your screen and store it in local variable called background. Remember to put "local" before the name of variable otherwise it will become global and consume memory.
NOTE:put a.png in same folder that you created in step 1.
b.)To display text
local myText = display.newText("Hello World!!", 50 , 50 , native.systemfont, 24)
myText:setTextColor(255,255,255)
Stay tuned for next.
