Course Description
This course is a unique experience on Udemy.
There are loads of Swift resources online to choose from, but this is the only course that takes you from a complete beginner in software development, teaches you the fundamentals, advanced topics, and makes you an expert in this field.
In addition, you have loads of practice exercises, challenges and projects to work on. I didn't just add a bunch of exercises at the end. Instead, each concept is put in code and practiced so that we make sure you apply and learn everything through action.
You get over 20 hours of on-demand videos, exercises and most importantly projects to apply the knowledge we talk about.
I've spent years building applications in Swift, and years again teaching people how to build code for themselves.
This is the most complete course I've ever done, and it's all to help you on your journey to become an expert developer.
We will cover basic topics such as
language fundamentals
collections
flow control
loops
handling errors and exceptions
functions
closures
higher order functions
As well as advanced topics such as
Object Oriented Programming
Principles of development
Standard functions
Types of classes
Extensions
Generics
Asynchronous programming
And we will put everything in practice through examples and projects.
If you want to take ONE COURSE to master Swift take this course.

Great basis on the Swift Language.

very good stuff.

It's a great option to get started as an iOS developer. I recommend it at least to start with the basics of Swift and then continue with SwiftUI to create mobile and desktop apps. It would be great if the author created a course just for SwiftUI

The further you get in the course the less finished the videos feel. Several videos include the clap to sync audio. Some of the videos end mid sentence. Seems very rushed to have something to sell. As a student I have to wonder why the instructor uses let thisThing = Int(thatThing) followed by the guard statement vs guarding and typesetting in the same line guard let thisThing = Int(thatThing) else { } I'm gonna finish the course, in hindsight I would have went a different direction.

Well, that explains a lot. When I started exploring Swift, I figured I've been around awhile, so I'll pick up the new material as I go along. That was working after a fashion, but I realized I was spend a lot of time doing research. A beginner's weakness is vocabulary, syntax, and idiom. This course filled that gap admirably. It explains a lot of the way Swift uses concepts that were familiar to me, but the way Swift does it wasn't. I especially liked the completeness of his slides. Excellent reference. I highly recommend this course to those new to programming, but especially those new to Swift.

This is actually the best course on Udemy for swift beginners. I love this course because it more in depth with swift and not SwiftUI. I’ve been trying to learn swift programming for over a year and I struggled because most of the other courses combine SwiftUI with swift and it starts getting confusing. But this course focuses strictly on the fundamentals of swift. One thing I love about this course is when he giving the examples he’s running the code through the simulator where other instructors just run it through the playground. The way this teacher shows the code I can see how the code is supposed to be used in the real world. Also, learning these concepts SwiftUI actually seems easier to understand, like a lot of SwiftUI is just closures. I highly recommend you take this course if your starting out with iOS programming or you’ve been struggling to understand complex topics this course really gives you a solid foundation to build on.
