Book Description:
Swift is an exciting, multi-platform, general-purpose programming
language, and with this book, you'll explore the features of its latest
version, Swift 5.3.
The book begins with an introduction to the basic building blocks of
Swift 5.3, its syntax, and the functionalities of Swift constructs.
You'll then discover how Swift Playgrounds provide an ideal platform to
write, execute, and debug your Swift code. As you advance through the
chapters, the book will show you how to bundle variables into tuples or
sets, order your data with an array, store key-value pairs with
dictionaries, and use property observers. You'll also get to grips with
the decision-making and control structures in Swift, examine advanced
features such as generics and operators, and explore functionalities
outside of the standard library. Once you've learned how to build iOS
applications using UIKit, you'll find out how to use Swift for
server-side programming, run Swift on Linux, and investigate Vapor.
Finally, you'll discover some of the newest features of Swift 5.3 using
SwiftUI and Combine to build adaptive and reactive applications, and
find out how to use Swift to build and integrate machine learning models
along with Apple's Vision Framework.
By the end of this Swift book, you'll have discovered solutions to boost
your productivity while developing code using Swift 5.3.
