Overview
Designing exceptional, versatile, and efficient mobile apps is crucial to compete and succeed in the fiercely competitive mobile app space. Crafting mobile software solutions that are reusable, adaptable, and customizable brings exceptional advantages to software enterprises by proactively mitigating technical debt. This course employs a hands-on approach to demonstrate state-of-the-art programming techniques for developing reusable, customizable iOS mobile apps.
The course starts with basic concepts for creating customizable software by leveraging iOS Frameworks. Each subsequent module adds complexity to the apps being developed, at a pace that’s both clear and comprehensible. The course utilizes Swift Protocols, the Model-View-ViewModel (MVVM) design pattern, Dependency Injection (DI), Combine, Core Data, Storyboards, and SwiftUI. Techniques for dynamically integrating iOS frameworks are also showcased. The course concludes with the creation of several distinct mobile apps using the frameworks developed, without the need for code changes.
What you’ll learn and how to apply it
By the end of this course, the learner will understand how to:
- Use expert techniques for crafting reusable, customizable, mobile app software by leveraging iOS Frameworks.
- Design and integrate iOS Frameworks into iOS Mobile Apps using Swift Protocols.
- Design iOS Frameworks using the Model-View-ViewModel (MVVM) design pattern, local file services, and UIKit.
- Design reusable iOS Frameworks using Dependency Injection, Swift Combine, Swift Generics, Mock API's, and UIKit.
- Design configurable iOS Frameworks using SwiftUI, Core Data, Third Party Stub API's, Dependency Injection, and In-App Purchases.
- Drive feature enablement across iOS Frameworks and design low-code solutions to promote reuse of existing frameworks.
- Dynamically integrate iOS Frameworks into iOS Mobile Apps by bridging Objective-C and Swift, and drive feature enablement across iOS frameworks using configuration techniques and In-App Purchases.
