iOS 18 Programming for Beginners

Swift

Welcome to Part 1 of this book. In this part, you will begin by exploring Xcode, Apple’s programming environment, which is also known as the Integrated Development Environment (IDE). After that, you will start learning the foundations of Swift 6, the programming language used in iOS apps, and see how it is used to accomplish common programming tasks.

This part comprises the following chapters:

  • Chapter 1, Exploring Xcode
  • Chapter 2, Simple Values and Types
  • Chapter 3, Conditionals and Optionals
  • Chapter 4, Range Operators and Loops
  • Chapter 5, Collection Types
  • Chapter 6, Functions and Closures
  • Chapter 7, Classes, Structures, and Enumerations
  • Chapter 8, Protocols, Extensions, and Error Handling
  • Chapter 9, Swift Concurrency

By the end of this part, you’ll understand the process of creating an app and running it on Simulator or a device, and you’ll have a working knowledge of how to use the Swift programming language in order to accomplish common programming tasks. This will prepare you for the next chapter and will also enable you to create your own Swift programs. Let’s get started!
