iOS Apprentice Sixth Edition: Beginning iOS development with Swift 4

Learn iPhone and iPad Programming via Tutorials!

If you’re new to iOS or Swift, or to programming in general, learning how to write an app can seem incredibly overwhelming.

That’s why you need a book that:

• Shows you how to write an app step-by-step
• Has tons of illustrations and screenshots to make everything clear
• Is written in a fun and easygoing manner!

In this book, you will learn how to make your own iPhone and iPad apps, through four engaging, epic-length tutorials.

These hands-on tutorials describe in full detail how to build a new app from scratch. Four tutorials, four apps. Each new app will be a little more advanced than the one before, and together they cover everything you need to know to make your own apps.

By the end of the series you’ll be experienced enough to turn your ideas into real apps that you can sell on the App Store.

Tutorial 1: Bull’s Eye. In the first tutorial in the book, you’ll start off by building a simple but fun game to learn the basics of iPhone programming. In the process, you’ll get familiar with Xcode, Interface Builder, and Swift in an easygoing manner.

Tutorial 2: Checklists. In the second tutorial in the series, you’ll create your own to-do list app. In the process, you’ll learn about the fundamental design patterns that all iOS apps use and about table views, navigation controllers and delegates. Now you’re making apps for real!

Tutorial 3: MyLocations. In the third tutorial, you’ll develop a location-aware app that lets you keep a list of spots that you find interesting. In the process, you’ll learn about Core Location, Core Data, Map Kit, and much more!

Tutorial 4: StoreSearch. Mobile apps often need to talk to web services and that’s what you’ll do in this final tutorial of the book. You’ll make a stylish app for iPhone and iPad that lets you search for products on the iTunes store using HTTP requests and JSON.

透過教學學習 iPhone 和 iPad 程式設計！

如果你對 iOS 或 Swift，或者對程式設計一無所知，學習如何撰寫應用程式可能會讓你感到非常壓倒性。

這就是為什麼你需要一本書，它具有以下特點：
- 逐步展示如何撰寫應用程式
- 大量插圖和螢幕截圖，使一切變得清晰易懂
- 以有趣和輕鬆的方式撰寫

在這本書中，你將透過四個引人入勝的長篇教學學習如何製作自己的 iPhone 和 iPad 應用程式。

這些實踐教學詳細描述了如何從頭開始建立一個新的應用程式。四個教學，四個應用程式。每個新的應用程式都比前一個更進階，它們共同涵蓋了你需要知道的製作自己應用程式的一切。

系列結束時，你將具備足夠的經驗，能夠將你的想法轉化為真正可以在 App Store 上銷售的應用程式。

教學 1：靶心。在本書的第一個教學中，你將首先建立一個簡單但有趣的遊戲，以學習 iPhone 程式設計的基礎。在此過程中，你將以輕鬆的方式熟悉 Xcode、Interface Builder 和 Swift。

教學 2：待辦事項清單。在系列的第二個教學中，你將創建自己的待辦事項清單應用程式。在此過程中，你將學習所有 iOS 應用程式使用的基本設計模式，以及表格視圖、導航控制器和委派。現在你正在製作真正的應用程式！

教學 3：我的位置。在第三個教學中，你將開發一個具有定位功能的應用程式，讓你保留一個你認為有趣的地點清單。在此過程中，你將學習 Core Location、Core Data、Map Kit 等等！

教學 4：商店搜尋。移動應用程式通常需要與網路服務進行通訊，這就是你在本書的最後一個教學中要做的。你將製作一個時尚的 iPhone 和 iPad 應用程式，使用 HTTP 請求和 JSON 在 iTunes 商店上搜尋產品。
