Do you have a fantastic idea for an iPhone app but no idea how to bring it to life? Great news! With the right tools and a little practice, anyone can create an app. This book will get you started, even if you've never written a line of computer code.
About the Book
Anyone Can Create an App begins with the basics by introducing programming concepts, the Swift language, and the tools you'll need to write iOS apps. As you explore the interesting examples, illuminating illustrations, and crystal-clear step-by-step instructions, you'll learn to:
- Get started programming, no experience necessary!
- Add controls like text boxes and buttons
- Keep track of your favorite things by creating the Like It or Not (LioN) app
By the end, you'll be able to create and run your own apps, and you'll have the confidence to learn more on your own. The book is updated for Swift 3.
About the Reader
This book is written especially for non programmers - no experience needed!
