Synopsis

The goal of this book is to teach the skills necessary to build iOS 15 applications using SwiftUI, Xcode 13 and the Swift 5.5 programming language.

Beginning with the basics, this book provides an outline of the steps necessary to set up an iOS development environment together with an introduction to the use of Swift Playgrounds to learn and experiment with Swift.

The book also includes in-depth chapters introducing the Swift 5.5 programming language including data types, control flow, functions, object-oriented programming, property wrappers, structured concurrency, and error handling.

An introduction to the key concepts of SwiftUI and project architecture is followed by a guided tour of Xcode in SwiftUI development mode. The book also covers the creation of custom SwiftUI views and explains how these views are combined to create user interface layouts including the use of stacks, frames and forms.

The book also includes chapters covering graphics drawing, user interface animation, view transitions and gesture handling, WidgetKit, document-based apps, Core Data, CloudKit, and SiriKit integration.

Chapters are also provided explaining how to integrate SwiftUI views into existing UIKit-based projects and explains the integration of UIKit code into SwiftUI.

Finally, the book explains how to package up a completed app and upload it to the App Store for publication.

Along the way, the topics covered in the book are put into practice through detailed tutorials, the source code for which is also available for download.

The aim of this book, therefore, is to teach you the skills necessary to build your own apps for iOS 15 using SwiftUI. Assuming you are ready to download the iOS 15 SDK and Xcode 13 and have an Apple Mac system you are ready to get started.
