Description
Apple has upgraded their Playgrounds iPad to now allow you to make apps! Using SwiftUI, Apple's new design framework, you can design and code apps all on your iPad. You can even submit your apps to the App Store using playgrounds so that you can share your app creations with the world.
In this course, I will take you from beginner to making several apps and even walk you through submitting your app to the App Store. We start the course first by helping you to develop a base in SwiftUI. SwiftUI makes it incredibly simple to design apps on the fly and see your tweaks and changes in real time! Once we have a good grasp on SwiftUI, we'll move on to making 2 apps.
The first app is Choppy Copy. A Text Modifier app that allows someone to quickly change the capitalization on text and copy it to the clipboard. We'll then create Sun Fun, an app that lets you find the sunrise and sunset times for any location in the world on any day! You'll learn how to work with Maps and Calendars/Dates with this app.
Finally, we'll take our Sun Fun course and submit it to the App Store.

Instructor
Hi! I'm Nick, and I love to code. About five years ago I decided that I wanted to learn to code, but I had limited access to programming resources, and I was getting frustrated with all of the YouTube videos and online tutorials out there. I experimented, struggled, and definitely failed a lot, but I finally got the hang of it, so I decided that I wanted to change the way that people learned to code, and I started teaching. My experience as an online student has directly influenced my teaching style, because I know what it is like to be in your shoes.
When
Apple announced their new programming language, Swift, in 2014, I made my big online teaching debut and created the
internet's first Swift course. Since that time, I have
become a full-time online instructor and I now have courses not only in Swift,
but also in iOS, Android, Django, Kotlin, Python, HTML, Blockchain, etc. I have also created five iOS apps from scratch that are currently live in the App Store and are being used by thousands of users worldwide.
I love sharing my excitement for coding with my students, and I try to make learning as fun and as easy as possible. Thanks for being part of my coding community!
