In this lesson, you will create an extension of both UIView and UIButton which will help with various UI enhancements.
In this lesson, you will build out FinishGoalVC in Interface Builder and pass data to it from CreateGoalVC.
In this lesson, you will write a function to save data to the Persistent Store using Core Data. You will save data from FinishGoalVC into the Persistent Store.
In this lesson, you will write another function in the UIViewController extension that will allow for the proper dismissal of FinishGoalVC. It will dismiss the current UIViewController and present the other simultaneously to avoid a stack of too many ViewControllers.
In this lesson, you will fetch data from the Persistent Store by using an NSFetchRequest. You will save the results in an array of Goal and display it in the UITableView.
In the lesson, you will write a function to remove an object from the Persistent Store using a UITableViewRowAction set up for deletion.
In this lesson, you will write a function to update the goalProgess attribute of the Goal entity. You will enable the UITableViewCells for goals to be updated with a UITableViewRowAction set to update the goalProgress attribute.
In this video, you will be given a challenge to extend GoalPost and add an undo feature.
In this video, you will be introduced to Breakpoint – the coder-centric social media app you will be building in this section. It features a public feed, group messaging, and a real-time Firebase backend.
In this lesson, you will create the Xcode project for Breakpoint and set up some organizational folders for the Model, View, and Controller layers as well as folders for Extensions and Services.
In this video, you will create a new project in the Firebase Console. Then, you will download a .plist file containing valuable Firebase data. You will install the Firebase CocoaPods to give our Xcode project the ability to communicate with Firebase.
In this lesson, you will create a singleton class called DataService which will allow you to interface with our Firebase Database. You will write a function allowing you to create users and add them to the Database as well.
