No matter how expert you are, sometimes you need a few resources to develop a successful application. There are plenty of options at your fingertips and it’s totally up to you what you select to create your app. Few developers rely on complete heavy toolkit while others would like to look for only specific components and features they really need in application.

Select according to your need and don’t let your app get lost in the dark corners of the App Store.
All resources are free unless specified. P.S: The list doesn’t contain prototyping tools.
