What will you learn from this book?
Swift is best known as Apple''s programming language of choice for developing apps on iOS, iPadOS, macOS, watchOS, and tvOS. But it''s far more versatile than that. Open source Swift is also gaining ground as a language for systems programming and server-side code, and it runs on Linux and Windows. So where do you start? With Head First Swift, you''ll explore from the ground up: from collecting and controlling data to reusing code, producing custom data types, and structuring programs and user interfaces with SwiftUI by building safe, protocol-driven code. With Swift under your belt, you''ll be ready to build everything from mobile and web apps to games, frameworks, command-line tools, and beyond.
What''s so special about this book?
If you''ve read a Head First book, you know what to expect--a visually rich format designed for the way your brain works. If you haven''t, you''re in for a treat. With this book, you''ll learn Swift through a multisensory experience that engages your mind rather than a text-heavy approach that puts you to sleep.
