There is a task to design a simple application that will download a folder with images from the server and display them on the iPad. For lack of experience, googled, and it came to an understanding (perhaps incorrect) that I could not access the image files directly. As I understand it, from the server side, I will need an xml file (.plist) in which the paths to the files in these folders will be written. Be so kind as to comment on whether this is so, and if not, how this task is implemented.

    Yes, you will need a plist, json, soap, a simple xml or any other info-file in which you will specify the paths to the resources. For such cases, I had the experience of creating a web service that, according to your id, generated a json list of your resource identifiers. In tandem with another web service, which received the resource by the identifier. With SQL, this is all simply implemented. IMHO is the easiest option that is suitable for long and active use.
