RanchForecast Project

Big Nerd Ranch has a web service that delivers a JSON document of its upcoming classes. The URL of this web service is http://​bookapi.bignerdranch.com/​courses.json. In this exercise, you are going to write an application that requests this data from the web service, parses it, and displays the upcoming classes in a table view. The app will look like Figure 28.3. Before you get started, try opening the URL above in your web browser to get a feel for what your application will be dealing with.
