Riassunto

Unlock the future of iOS app development with "Practical iOS 18 Development: Build Modern Apps with Swift and SwiftUI." This comprehensive guide empowers you to master the latest tools and best practices to create stunning, high-performance applications for Apple's ecosystem. Are you ready to build cutting-edge iOS applications but feel overwhelmed by complex frameworks or outdated learning resources? Look no further. This book is your definitive, hands-on, and step-by-step pathway to becoming a proficient modern iOS developer.Dive deep into the core concepts of iOS 18 app creation. You will master SwiftUI's declarative power, crafting intuitive and visually appealing user interfaces from the ground up. Explore advanced UI techniques including custom view modifiers for reusable styles, leveraging GeometryReader to create truly adaptive layouts, and implementing sophisticated user interactions with SwiftUI's robust gesture system. Bring your UI to life with engaging animations and seamless view transitions, adding polish and responsiveness to every interaction.
Beyond the visuals, this book provides a solid foundation in data management. You will learn to implement persistent object graphs using SwiftData, Apple's modern and Swift-native approach to data storage, ensuring your app's data is always safe and accessible across launches. Conquer networking and API integration using URLSession and the revolutionary async/await concurrency model, making asynchronous operations clear, efficient, and reliable. Understand how to handle JSON data effortlessly with Swift's Codable protocol, streamlining communication between your app and remote backend services.
Building robust applications is key, and this guide walks you through essential strategies for error handling in networking, ensuring your apps gracefully manage API failures and provide clear user feedback. Elevate your development workflow with insights into performance optimization, identifying and resolving common bottlenecks to deliver smooth and performant user experiences. Crucially, you will learn to ensure the quality and reliability of your code through comprehensive testing, including unit testing with XCTest for individual functions and components, and UI testing with XCUITest to automate user interface interactions.
Culminate your learning journey by building a complete, real-world Task Management App, applying all the concepts you've learned from project planning and UI design to data persistence and backend integration. Finally, navigate the crucial stages of deployment and App Store submission, from understanding app icons and launch screens to mastering the archiving and signing process, and effectively managing your app's presence on App Store Connect.
Whether you're an aspiring iOS developer taking your first steps into the Apple ecosystem, or an experienced programmer looking to modernize your skills with iOS 18, Swift, and SwiftUI, this book is tailored for you.
