Developing apps for Apple's broadening platform of devices is an
exciting topic these days. Apple created the Swift programming language
to build state-of-the-art apps using the latest Apple technologies.
In this 200-page book, author Scott Gardner articulates the similarities
and differences between traditional Objective-C based programming and
Swift, revealing what you need to know from syntax changes to emerging
best practices and paradigm shifts, to write powerful, expressive, and
flexible code in Swift.
Written at a brisk pace and in a methodical style, you'll learn how to
apply your Objective-C skills to successfully transition to programming
in Swift.
In this book, you'll learn:
- What is Swift and how does it compare to Objective-C
- How to become proficient in Swift by leveraging your existing
Objective-C skills
- How to take advantage of new capabilities in Swift
- What are the emerging best practices in Swift programming
Transitioning to Swift reaches out to all developers who are
interested in creating state-of-the-art apps for Apple's broadening
platform of devices for both consumers and enterprise. Apple's
introduction of the new Swift programming language raises many
questions. This book addresses those questions directly, and prepares
developers for building the next generation of apps in Swift to surprise
and delight users the world over.
