Beginning iOS 17 Programming with Swift (SwiftUI + UIKit) - Starter

Learn iOS Programming in Swift by building a real world app from scratch. This is the starter package of our Beginning iOS Programming with Swift course. It includes learning materials for both beginners and intermediates.

The package includes three eBooks (PDF, ePub, mobi) that cover 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. SwiftUI and UIKit are the two essential UI frameworks you need to learn. For the beginner book, we provide two editions for the book: UIKit and SwiftUI. Both editions will teach you how to build the same real world app but with different UI frameworks.

The intermediate programming book focuses on developing apps using UIKit. It uses a problem-solution approach to teach you Swift programming and cover various APIs of iOS SDK.

All the books have been fully updated for Xcode 15, Swift 5.9, and iOS 17. This package includes 1-year free update. You will continue to receive all the updated content during your first year of purchase.

BEGINNER (UIKit + SwiftUI)

------------

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. SwiftUI and UIKit are the two essential UI frameworks you need to learn. For the beginner book, we provide two editions for the book: UIKit and SwiftUI. Both editions will teach you how to build the same real world app but with different UI frameworks.

On top of the UI frameworks, this book will teach you how to program in Swift, work with Xcode 14 and master the essential APIs of the iOS 17 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 15/15 Pro too.

Specially, you will learn in this course:

• Develop apps using SwiftUI and UIKit
• New features of Xcode 15 and Swift 5.9 Programming
• Playgrounds in Xcode
• Prototyping an app without writing a line of code
• Stack views and Adaptive UI
• MVC, MVVM, and OOP
• Working with Auto Layout, Dynamic Type and Size Classes
• Working with Navigation View
• Table/List view programming
• Table view/List Customization
• Applying Blur Effect using UIVisualEffect
• UIView animations and Image Manipulation
• Working with MapKit
• Accessing Photo Library and Camera
• Using WKWebView and SFSafariViewController to Display Web Pages
• Search bar implementation
• Tab bar integration
• Working with Core Data
• Creating tutorial screens
• Integrating with CloudKit and build a social feature
• Pull to Refresh content
• Localizing Your App into different languages
• Arranging beta test with users using TestFlight
• Submitting your app to App Store
• Adopting Haptic Touch and Context Menus
• Implementing User Notifications in iOS

Full source code and Xcode projects are included in the package.
