Description

Introduction

SwiftUI and Combine are powerful tools in Apple’s ecosystem for building modern, reactive iOS applications. SwiftUI allows developers to create user interfaces declaratively, while Combine provides a framework for handling asynchronous events and data flows. This iOS Apps with SwiftUI course focuses on integrating both SwiftUI and Combine to create dynamic and responsive iOS applications. Developers will learn how to efficiently bind data, handle user interactions, and implement complex UI logic in a reactive manner.

Prerequisites

• Basic knowledge of Swift programming
• Familiarity with Xcode and iOS development basics
• Understanding of object-oriented programming concepts
• Experience with UIKit (optional, but helpful)
• Familiarity with fundamental programming concepts like closures, delegates, and notifications
