Once you've done your pre-work, it's time to migrate your code. For our purposes, we are going to use a simple Tic Tac Toe project that you can download from the Packt website:

  1. Launch Xcode 8 and open the Tic Tac Toe project: On first launch, Xcode will ask you if you want to migrate your Swift 2.2 project to use the latest SDKs. Choose Convert to start the migration.
