Jump into the app development world with confidence!
iOS Swift 24-Hour Trainer combines book and video lessons in Apple's
Swift programming language to prepare you to build iPhone and iPad
apps--and distribute them through the Appstore. First, this approachable
text covers the fundamentals of Swift by introducing you to iOS
development in this language, and presenting best practices for setting
up a development environment and using variables, statements,
expressions, operators, functions, and closures. Next, you explore
common tasks, such as alert views, table views, and collection views.
You then deepen your knowledge of Swift by considering network
programming and local data storage. Finally, this engaging resource
dives into slightly more advanced concepts, such as tab bars, web views,
the accelerometer, camera, photo library, Google maps, and core
location.
Swift was designed by Apple to incorporate modern scripting features
while offering simpler, cleaner syntax than Objective-C to maintain a
minimal and easy to read style. This more expressive code offers
numerous key features, such as closures unified with function pointers,
tuples and multiple value returns, generics, and functional programming
patterns.
- Learn how to obtain a device UDID
- Test your applications on an actual device, so you can see your work
in action
- Distribute your applications outside of the App store, allowing you to
test your work with real users
- Review common reasons why apps are rejected by Apple to strengthen
your case when submitting your apps for distribution
iOS Swift 24-Hour Trainer is an essential guide to Apple's Swift
programming language for beginning programmers.
