Connecting items in an Xcode storyboard to our codebase2:07
We connect the graphical elements in our storyboard to the ViewController class in the codebase using outlets.
Writing the Swift 2 code of an iOS app6:41
We can't just have graphical elements in our app - we need some functionality too! Here we learn how to make things happen with image pickers and image displays. All code is written in Apples brand new language - Swift.

How to add pinch to zoom to a UIImageView5:26
We learn what a UIScrollView is and how to embed a UIImageView in one. That UIScrollView allows us to implement pinch to zoom and dragging of our image.

PLEASE NOTE: This course is only to get you up and running with Xcode and iOS in record time. Therefore we have limited time to actually explain everything. My other course on iOS app development explains everything we do in much more detail.
How to share an image on iOS with Facebook, Twitter etc5:46
We learn how to implement Apples very simple UIActivityViewController which allows sharing to any available service. That covers Facebook, Twitter, Mail, Messages etc. Available on iOS 8 and higher.
An introduction to good iOS coding - our first crash4:45
Learn why checking for a variable first is always best! We discover how we can send messages to ourselves from within the app to let us know what's going wrong. The ability to send messages to the Xcode console is invaluable for tracking down errors within our app.

Ever just wanted to get stuck in to iOS app making right away?

Well, that's why I created this course! No other course takes you from beginner (with no experience) to a full app in less time than it takes to make a sandwich! I will show you how to:

Install Xcode (and iOS simulator)
Setup the graphical look of your app using Storyboards
Connect graphical elements like buttons and Text Fields to your Swift code using outlets
Manipulate images (pinch to zoom) within iOS apps

Are a beginner or novice to iOS App development in Xcode 7 and Swift
Want to understand iOS apps in a short period of time

This course is not for you if:

You are an expert or intermediate programmer

No. I assume you are a complete beginner to apps and development in general

What makes this course different?

It's just so quick! Take i right now and you'll learn iOS apps before you can even blink! Everyone used to tell me apps were hard to make - but they're wrong. It's probably because they had bad teachers - join me and I'll show you what good teaching is!

ALSO NOTE: THIS IS A FREE COURSE. I gave up about a week of my time to put it together and now you can learn for free. Some people in the reviews section think that means I have reply to every single thing they request. If I don't reply then they drop me a bad review - all because I didn't give them personalised attention.

I'm sure that you, the reader, know what kind of people these are...

I reply to all my paid courses as a priority and then to my free ones if time allows. Please understand this before taking this course.
