Animate With SwiftUI: iOS, watchOS and visionOS (Udemy.com)

Hi, my name is Amos Gyamfi. I have been using SwiftUI to create animations since its first release in 2019. I am so excited to teach you how to get started and build your next iOS, iPadOS, macOS, visionOS, and watchOS app animations using SwiftUI.

Welcome to Animate With SwiftUI: iOS, macOS, watchOS, and visionOS. This course gives you a solid foundation and the basic principles for animating anything you can imagine with SwiftUI. We will first go through how things change over time, so that you know, for example, how objects move. We will then look at creating basic animation and Spring Animation, using Phase Animator, Keyframe Animator, and more. You will learn how to make your app animations look better, delightful, and valuable using nothing but SwiftUI. So, let’s get started with Animate With SwiftUI: iOS, macOS, watchOS, and visionOS.
