The Livecode team imported Appleās Foundation Framework so you can use its power inside of a stack instead of writing extensions. It will be a little slower than an extension but in many cases the loss of speed will not be noticeable.
To access all the power of foundation you need to know objective-c which is simply improvements to the C language. Everything in the C language is a function. Livecode was written in C++ so learning it will help you write functions in Livecodde. Here are two links that will help you; 1. One of the best tutorials for C loaded with examples. http://fresh2refresh.com/c-programming/ 2. Some of the best examples I have seen for accessing the power of Foundation. https://ios.eezytutorials.com/nsarray-by-example.php#.WGr_jrGZMlU Happy New Year and Happy Programming!
