Course Description

Let's build a real iOS app using SwiftUI with all of the latest SwiftUI features!


In this course you will be building a functional iOS Tinder clone with most of the features of the real app. The focus of this course is learning & perfecting SwiftUI concepts. You will learn how to build beautiful and complex views using Apples latest user interface framework. SwiftUI is the future of iOS development so it's time to add this skill to your developer portfolio! 


The best way to learn iOS development is to build real applications. This course will teach you strong architecture fundamentals and you will learn how to efficiently load & pass data around a larger app with several screens.


To keep the focus on how to build views with SwiftUI, we will skip implementing a server or a networking layer. We will be loading our data locally to render our UI. With the clean MVVM architecture, you will easily be able to implement your own networking layer without having to refactor any code.


Technical Specifications: 
* Xcode Version: 12.2

* iOS Version 14+

* Minimum MacOS 10.15 required for SwiftUI previews. I'm using Mojave 11.2.1

* Architecture followed: MVVM
* Swift 5

What is SwiftUI? 
Apple has provided this new framework as a way to quickly build beautiful user interfaces for any Apple device using just one set of easy-to-use tools. With the new declarative syntax of SwiftUI, it takes less code to keep your code and design perfectly in sync.

SwiftUI works seamlessly with new Xcode design tools and significantly speeds up development by showing your code changes in real time! 

After the latest features for iOS 14 announced at WWDC 2020, SwiftUI 2 is even more robust! New views, new functionality, less bugs, and faster performance with Swift 5.


SwiftUI is 100% the future of iOS Development. Don't delay any more.

Start learning today!

This course is in no way affiliated with Tinder® or Match Group, LLC. No source code of the real Tinder application is ever shown. This code is my interpretation of how I would build the app using SwiftUI.

Almost all the courses were very well explained but : there is bug in the last lesson and the ressource, it is unfortunate that it wasn't updated since. also the coded format doesn't fit small phone as Iphone 13 min. it need at least some coding knowledge to correct these issues.

By Michelle Torres on 1/29/2023

Very impressive. He explains everything he does thoroughly. Absolutely learned so much more than any other course. His code is super clean and very easy course to follow even for beginners. Thanks Nikita!!!

This is the first time a Udemy course enjoyed with every step!! Super straight forward. Thank you Nikita. Request for a backend course from you, for sure will be awesome!!

By Joshua Tavares on 11/26/2021

This is the 3rd course ive taken on this site, and probably 6 total. In the first 12 minutes of the nine hour course, I already learned something, and I have been on swiftUI for around a year. looking forward to the rest of the course

This is a very good course! I learned a lot and thank you for creating it. A must for anyone wanting to learn. I hope you could extend this course to show how we can connect to Firebase and be able to replace the static data. Thanks

By Victor Tlepshev on 8/27/2021

Very easy to follow. good tips and tricks. however I did not expect it to be so basic. This course is missing the 95% of the most important stuff. how to handle the server requests? how to cover in app purchase? Honestly, not very impressed!

I appreciate this course but there is one thing I didn't understood, the data Management with combine (EnviromentObject and others) and some of views like ZStack top positioning were very hard to implement because I couldn't understand properly even by reading some documentation.

The TL;DR - This course was great, almost perfect but with one flaw and it’s not a small one. Mock/static data! If this course had come with a backend, even a firebase one, it would have been the best course not just on SwiftUI current available but the best course I have ever taken on Udemy. I’m giving it 5 stars because the quality of what was there and not simply judging on what I feel was missed. The good: - The course structure and delivery - Nikita is engaging, the explanations are sound and make sense. - The revisions along the way make sense too. - It’s handholding without feeling stupid, or assuming you’re already well versed in SwiftUI. If my own mentoring/teaching skills were as good I would be proud. - The course content is relevant and even if you don’t care about Tinder itself you will learn common features found in many successful apps. The not so good: - Working with static data is great for local development. This course was such a high quality in what to delivers that it feels like an absolute shame to close out on an app that’s using static local data in mocks. I feel like some of the areas highlighted as a place for network calls would have been revised and further explored great app design by including that networking layer. Final Thoughts: Q: Is Nikita’s course worth your money? A: Absolutely! Q: Did I get this course free for a good review? A: No, I paid sale price (12.99GBP) Q: Would I buy a course from Nikita again? A: If this is the benchmark he’s setting then yes without question I would buy again. Q: If I had a magic want what would I change? A: Only the inclusion of a backend of some sort to make it actually a ‘real’ app. Fabulous stuff Nikita. Thank you. I loved it.

Excellent Course... Many new helpful and useful things. Clear explanation include detail.. Great Job Nikita. Go Beyond. You have great capacity create useful content for study SwiftUI. It's definitely a Future... Thank you Nikita, keep going always Beyond

By Charlie I on 4/30/2021

I really love Nikitas style of course. I am quite familiar with SwiftUI already, but he has so many cool tricks and tips and different ways of doing things to learn. A nice steady, clear and concise way of explaining too. Not sure it would be great for beginners, but I would definitely recommend to anyone looking to beef up their SwiftUI skills.
