SwiftUI Fundamentals

An introduction to building iOS user interfaces with SwiftUI! Learn about SwiftUI Views and modifiers, common SwiftUI controls, fundamental layout tools, navigation and data flow, and how to make the most of SwiftUI previews.

Your First iOS & SwiftUI App: Polishing the App

This course is the sequel to “Your First iOS & SwiftUI App: An App from Scratch.” In this course, we’ll finish off our “nice-to-haves” on our programming to-do list for Bull’s Eye, resulting in a professional and polished app.

Your First iOS & SwiftUI App: An App from Scratch

Updated for 2023! If you’re a complete beginner to iOS and SwiftUI development and wondering how to get started, this is the course for you.

Supporting SwiftUI with Core Graphics

Learn how to support SwiftUI drawing with Core Graphics! This course picks up where our Drawing in iOS with SwiftUI course left off. You’ll enhance the Open Mind app with help from UIKit and Core Graphics. You’ll learn how to integrate UIKit views with SwiftUI, use UIKit touch methods to capture Apple Pencil drawing, and make the whole drawing view a UIControl that we can plug into any of our future SwiftUI apps.

Drawing in iOS with SwiftUI

Learn about drawing using SwiftUI by creating custom controls using a combination of SwiftUI and Core Graphics. Covers shapes, colors, drawing with Pencil, and how to integrate them into a non-trivial app.

Creating Multiplatform Apps with SwiftUI

Learn how to build an app for multiple platforms including iOS, iPadOS, macOS, watchOS and tvOS all by leveraging the power of Swift and SwiftUI. Build a task timing app that keeps track of your favorite tasks and how long you need to complete them.

Server-Side Swift with Vapor

In this course you’ll learn everything you need to get start with Vapor, the Server-Side Swift web framework. You’ll cover the basics of routing and sending and receiving data. Next you’ll learn how to use Fluent to save and retrieve information in a database. You’ll see how to leverage Leaf, Vapor’s templating language, to build a web app. You’ll learn how to add authentication to your routes and protect your app. Finally you’ll see how to integrate the Vapor API with an iOS companion app.

SwiftUI: Animation

In this course, we’re going to get you started animating all sorts of SwiftUI views.

Why should you add animation to your apps? Well, animation is a brilliant way to wow your users, and make your app look and feel unique.

Practically speaking, animation can grab a user’s attention, and allow them to focus on what’s most important. It can help your users intuitively understand how to navigate your app or alert them to important changes.

SwiftUI Maps & Location: Fundamentals

This course shows you how to use MapKit and Core Location to integrate mapping and locations services into your app. With this technology, you can orientate your users, provide directions, and even create your own visual maps.

Gestures in SwiftUI

Learn how to use SwiftUI’s Gestures to add dynamic touch interactions to your apps. Quickly add one of SwiftUI’s five basic gestures, customize gestures for more control, and combine multiple gestures to build more sophisticated interactivity.

Programming in Swift: Functions & Types

Gain a deeper understanding of functions, practice using closures, and build your skills with named types.

Handling Keyboard & Pointer Interactions in SwiftUI

Learn how to handle the iOS keyboard, external hardware keyboards, and pointer interactions in a SwiftUI app.

SwiftUI: Layout & Interfaces

Learn the fundamentals of layout in SwiftUI. Lazy Stacks andGrids, Scroll View Readers, Alignment, ZStacks, and GeometryReaders are the main topics.

Your Second iOS & SwiftUI App

Use the knowledge you’ve gained from creating a SwiftUI app, and learning the basics of Swift, to create a more complex app: one to track your book collection!

Programming in Swift: Fundamentals

Learn about Apple’s open source programming language, Swift, through hands-on examples! Take a deep dive into the Swift language, learning about core Swift concepts like loops, collections, types, optionals, functions, classes, and more.

Higher-Order Functions in Swift

Learn what higher-order functions are, and how to write and use them in Swift. Expand your understanding with examples from the Swift Standard Library, the new Swift Algorithms framework, and SwiftUI.

Adapting to User Accessibility Settings in SwiftUI

In this course, learn how to adapt a SwiftUI app to common Accessibility settings including Dark Mode and Dynamic Type. Work with Accessibility Inspector and SwiftUI Previews to learn how to build for Accessibility faster.

SwiftUI Charts for WidgetKit

Learn how to use SwiftUI to create a series of different charts, and then how to use WidgetKit to display them on a user’s home screen.

Integrating UIKit & SwiftUI

Learn how to integrate SwiftUI views into your UIKit apps and view hierarchies, and how to host UIKit views and view controllers in SwiftUI. Coordinate data flow from SwiftUI to UIKit and back again!

Your First iOS and SwiftUI App: Designing the App [OPTIONAL]

Learn how to start with nothing but an app idea, and take it all the way to a beautiful visual design made in Figma.

Reusable SwiftUI Views in the raywenderlich.com App

Build two of the custom SwiftUI views used throughout the raywenderlich.com app. Get a glimpse into how we used SFSymbols, managed colors, and made the most of live previews.

Create a Splash Screen with SwiftUI

Learn to build a splash screen that uses animation and SwiftUI to go beyond the typical static launch screen and keeps users interested while the app loads.

What's Updated in SwiftUI and Combine

SwiftUI and Combine have both gone through many changes since WWDC 2019 - this course covers some of those changes and introduces a few more things along the way.

SwiftUI

A deep dive into getting started with SwiftUI. This course will cover the basics to get you off the ground running before moving on to create SwiftUI interfaces that seamlessly integrate alongside UIKit. You'll cover SwiftUI components, accessibility as well as the new layout system to create a completed app at the end of the course.
