You'll understand how to integrate SwiftUI with exciting new components in the Apple development ecosystem, such as Combine for managing events and Core Data for managing app data. Finally, you'll write iOS, macOS, and watchOS apps by sharing the same SwiftUI codebase. By the end of this SwiftUI book, you'll have discovered a range of simple, direct solutions to common problems encountered when building SwiftUI apps. What you will learn Explore various layout presentations in SwiftUI such as HStack, VStack, LazyHStack, and LazyVGrid Create widgets to quickly display relevant content at glance Get up to speed with drawings in SwiftUI using built-in shapes, custom paths, and polygons Discover modern animation and transition techniques in SwiftUI Add user authentication using Firebase and Sign in with Apple Manage concurrency with Combine and async/await in SwiftUI Solve the most common SwiftUI problems, such as integrating a MapKit map, unit testing, snapshot testing, and previewing layouts Who this book is forThis book is for mobile developers who want to learn SwiftUI as well as experienced iOS developers transitioning from UIkit to SwiftUI. The book assumes knowledge of the Swift programming language. Knowledge of object-oriented design and data structures will be useful but not necessary. You'll also find this book to be a helpful resource if you're looking for reference material regarding the implementation of various features in SwiftUI.

From learning about the most sought-after design patterns to a comprehensive coverage of architectural patterns and code testing, this book is all you need to write clean, reusable code Key Features Write clean, reusable and maintainable code, and make the most of the latest Swift version. Analyze case studies of some of the popular open source projects and give your workflow a huge boost Choose patterns such as MVP, MVC, and MVVM depending on the application being built Book DescriptionSwift keeps gaining traction not only amongst Apple developers but also as a server-side language. This book demonstrates how to apply design patterns and best practices in real-life situations, whether that's for new or already existing projects. You'll begin with a quick refresher on Swift, the compiler, the standard library, and the foundation, followed by the Cocoa design patterns - the ones at the core of many cocoa libraries - to follow up with the creational, structural, and behavioral patterns as defined by the GoF. You'll get acquainted with application architecture, as well as the most popular architectural design patterns, such as MVC and MVVM, and learn to use them in the context of Swift. In addition, you'll walk through dependency injection and functional reactive programming. Special emphasis will be given to techniques to handle concurrency, including callbacks, futures and promises, and reactive programming. These techniques will help you adopt a test-driven approach to your workflow in order to use Swift Package Manager and integrate the framework into the original code base, along with Unit and UI testing. By the end of the book, you'll be able to build applications that are scalable, faster, and easier to maintain. What you will learn Work efficiently with Foundation and Swift Standard library Understand the most critical GoF patterns and use them efficiently Use Swift 4.2 and its unique capabilities (and limitations) to implement and improve GoF patterns Improve your application architecture and optimize for maintainability and performance Write efficient and clean concurrent programs using futures and promises, or reactive programming techniques Use Swift Package Manager to refactor your program into reusable components Leverage testing and other techniques for writing robust code Who this book is forThis book is for intermediate developers who want to apply design patterns with Swift to structure and scale their applications. You are expected to have basic knowledge of iOS and Swift.
