Become an iOS Developer

Dev colleagues, in the  Become an iOS Developer program you will master the Swift programming language, and create a portfolio of iOS apps for iPhone and iPad to showcase your skills. Start by learning the basics of iOS app development using the Swift programming language and Xcode, Apple's development environment. Then, you’ll progress to build more complex and advanced applications, using networking, and Apple’s Grand Central Dispatch and Core Data, and will be ready to publish your capstone project to the App Store.  Training modules - each with hands-on projects - include: 1) Intro to iOS App Development with Swift - build your first app with Swift and Xcode, Apple’s programming environment for app development. You’ll learn how to use AutoLayout, UIButtons, and UILabels to create an interface, and how to react to touch events in an app using ViewController and multiple views. You’ll also learn how to set up audio recording and playback in a voice recording app (Project: Pitch Perfect); 2) UIKit Fundamentals - develop an app with UIKit, Apple’s front-end framework for developing fast and powerful web interfaces. Learn about the delegate pattern to make connections between the app’s model, view, and controller, and add table views and navigation to your app (Project: Meme - Parts 1 & 2); 3) Network Requests and GCD - incorporate networking into your apps, and harness the power of APIs to display images and retrieve data. Use Apple’s Grand Central Dispatch, or GCD, framework to create asynchronous apps, ensuring a smooth user experience, even while your apps run lengthy operations in the background (Project: On the Map); 4) Data Persistence- learn about simple persistence, the iOS File System, and the “sandbox.” Set up the classes we need to get Core Data up and running so that we can create, save, and delete model objects. Enable user interfaces to reactively update whenever the model changes, and safely migrate user data between versions (Project: Virtual Tourist). This is your chance to let your iOS Developer skills shine - design and build your own iOS app, taking the design from the drawing board to the App Store.
