Historically, it's been hard to get started with. The learning curve is higher than most frameworks, making the barrier to entry a non-starter for many developers. But today, I'm here to help anyone who wants to figure out how sync works in iOS apps. With the new CKSyncEngine, it's much, much easier to implement. Apple is dogfooding it too — both Freeform and NSUbiquitousKeyValueStore use it.

8-part series on using CloudKit with examples.
