E-Books →Beginning iOS Programming with Swift and UIKit

The book is fully updated for Xcode 14, Swift 5.7, and iOS 16.
What you will learn
I know many readers have an app idea but don't know where to begin. Hence, this new book is written with this in mind. It covers the whole aspect of Swift programming and you will learn how to build a real-world app from scratch. You'll first learn the basics of Swift, then prototype an app, and later add some features to it in each chapter. After going through the whole book, you'll have a real app. During the process, you will learn how to exhibit data in table view, customize the look & feel of a cell, design UI using Stack Views, create animations, work on maps, build an adaptive UI, save data in local database, upload data to iCloud, use TestFlight to arrange beta test, etc.
This new book features a lot of hands-on exercises and projects. You will get the opportunities to write code, fix bugs and test your app. Although it involves a lot of work, it will be a rewarding experience. I believe it will allow you to master Swift 5.7, Xcode 14, and iOS 16 programming. Most importantly, you will be able to develop an app and release it on App Store.
Who is this book for
This book is written for beginners without any prior programming experience and those who want to learn Swift programming. Whether you are a programmer who wants to learn a new programming language or a designer who wants to turn your design into an iOS app or an entrepreneur who wants to learn to code, this book is written for you.
