Description

Swift and SwiftUI are the backbone of Apple application development, making them a crucial skill set to learn. Animating SwiftUI Applications focuses on the creation of stunning animations, making you proficient in this declarative language and employing a minimal code approach. In this book, you'll start by exploring the fundamentals of SwiftUI and animation, before jumping into various projects that will cement these skills in practice. You will explore some simple projects, like animating circles, creating color spectrums with hueRotation, animating individual parts of an image, as well as combining multiple views together to produce dynamic creations. The book will then transition into more advanced animation projects that employ the GeometryReader, which helps align your animations across different devices, as well as creating word and color games. Finally, you will learn how to integrate the SpriteKit framework into our SwiftUI code to create scenes with wind, fire, rain, and or snow scene, along with adding physics, gravity, collisions, and particle emitters to your animations. By the end of this book, you’ll have created a number of different animation projects, and will have gained a deep understanding of SwiftUI that can be used for your own creations.

The book is very well written. I have been working with SwiftUI for less than a year, and this book helps me understand better concepts, using suitable examples.The book is well-structured and organized.I would recommend it for both beginners and experienced iOS developers.

Justin Horner Mar 29, 2023

Reading through this book and making the projects was a great time, and I recommend it even if you don't necessarily consider yourself a Swift / iOS developer.In fact, I believe this is much better introduction to SwiftUI than the path I took. The projects are interesting, and you'll take away some transferable general animation knowledge.It covers all the topics you'd expect, such as custom views, modifiers, previews, built-in views, timing, closures, layouts, etc.
