BEGINNER

This book covers everything you need to learn for iOS app development. Remember, Swift is just a programming language. To develop an iOS app, you need to learn far more than that. On top of the introduction to Swift 4, this book will teach you how to work with Xcode 9 and master the essential APIs of the iOS 11 SDK. Most importantly, it takes you every step of the way from an idea to building a real world app on App Store.
Starting by creating an app prototype, we will build one (or a couple) feature in each chapter. After going through the book, you will end up with a well-designed restaurant app that supports both iPhone and iPad. Of course, it looks great on the brand-new iPhone X too.
