SwiftUI 4 and Swift 5.7: iOS App Development for iOS 16 | Udemy

Welcome

Welcome to my course on building apps for iOS 16 using SwiftUI 4 and Swift 5.7. I’m so excited to show you Apple’s latest and greatest development technologies to build complete iOS apps from scratch with SwiftUI!

What is SwiftUI?

SwiftUI is Apple’s design tool of choice. And for the past few years, Apple has been putting their full efforts behind the development of new and better SwiftUI features, so for anyone who is serious about developing iOS apps, SwiftUI is definitely one of the best things you can learn to make sure you’re up to speed with the most relevant mobile development practices.

It’s also something that many employers are looking for in the developers they hire, so not only are you learning an awesome technology that you can use on your own personal projects, but you’re also gaining a valuable skill that you can use to help you get a top-paying development job from companies all around the world.

With SwiftUI 4, Apple added tons of amazing new features, and I can’t wait to show them to you throughout the course!

Who should take this course?

This course is for people at all levels of programming experience. If you’re an absolute beginner with no prior experience, this course will teach you everything you need to know, starting from scratch. If you’ve already been in the industry for a while, this course will introduce you to the latest additions to Apple’s most popular tools and frameworks.

I’m releasing this course in sections, one app at a time, so that I can get feedback throughout the development of this course to make sure it serves my students well. There will be much more content added to the course over the next little while, and I’m already hard at work developing more sections that will be added to this course based on student feedback.

Apps We Build

The first app we’ll develop together is a fun little currency converter app from everyone’s favorite mythical land, Middle Earth. All ye Hobbits, Elves, Wizards, Dwarves, and any other creature in the land are welcome to come to the Prancing Pony to exchange your currencies.

We’ll learn all about essential SwiftUI layout tools like stacks and grids, as well as the most common Swift types, like String, Int, Double, and more.

We’ll also delve into some object-oriented programming concepts with models and functions.

And if you don’t know what any of those things are, then this is the perfect course for you! Because I explain everything in simple, easy-to-understand way that previous students have loved.

The 2nd app we build is an awesome Jurassic Park list app to showcase the most feared Apex Predators from prehistoric earth. I’ll add on to the teachings in the first app as I teach you new ways to build your views and layout your screens.

We’ll also dive into a couple of intermediate topics like filtering and sorting a list, but don’t worry, I explain everything in a simple, understandable way.

After that we start getting into some crucial topics that every iOS developer needs to have with our 3rd app, a Breaking Bad quotes generator.

This app can go online and get data from a real online database to display in the app, and we’ll learn how Swift makes it simple to do normally complex topics like concurrency and asynchronous programming.

And that’s not all! After that, I’m going to teach you how to use Core Data, which is Apple’s powerful database framework. I’ll teach you how to build a Home Screen Widget, how to add animations to your apps, how to add in-app purchases, how to play audio… and so much more!

You Can Shape the Future of this Course

My goal is to make this course the best iOS course available, and I welcome all comments, questions, and feedback of any kind so I can make sure I’m serving my students well.

Thank You

I appreciate your consideration, and I look forward to seeing you in the course. Let’s get started!
