Chapter    14

A Swif t iPhone App

In Chapter 8 you created a basic bookstore iPhone app with Swift. In this chapter, you will add some features to the app to make it a bit more functional and use many of the technologies you have learned in this book, such as creating a class, using delegates and protocols, and using actions and outlets. You’ll also learn about some new techniques such as switches, UIAlertView, and landmarks.

Let’s Get Started

The bookstore example in Chapter 8 enabled you to view books in your bookstore in a Table View and then tap the book to see its details. In this chapter you will add the following capabilities to the Chapter 8 bookstore app:

  • Adding a book
  • Deleting a book
  • Modifying a book

See Figures 14-1 and 14-2.
