The book begins with an introduction to the basic building blocks of Swift 5.3, its syntax, and the functionalities of Swift constructs. You’ll then discover how Swift Playgrounds provide an ideal platform to write, execute, and debug your Swift code. As you advance through the chapters, the book will show you how to bundle variables into tuples or sets, order your data with an array, store key-value pairs with dictionaries, and use property observers. You’ll also get to grips with the decision-making and control structures in Swift, examine advanced features such as generics and operators, and explore functionalities outside of the standard library. Once you’ve learned how to build iOS applications using UIKit, you'll find out how to use Swift for server-side programming, run Swift on Linux, and investigate Vapor. Finally, you'll discover some of the newest features of Swift 5.3 using SwiftUI and Combine to build adaptive and reactive applications, and find out how to use Swift to build and integrate machine learning models along with Apple’s Vision Framework. By the end of this Swift book, you'll have discovered solutions to boost your productivity while developing code using Swift 5.3.What you will learnExplore basic to advanced concepts in Swift 5.3 programmingUnderstand conditional statements, loops, and how to handle errors in SwiftDefine flexible classes and structs using genericsUse advanced operators and create custom onesBuild iOS apps using the powerful features of UIKit or the new SwiftUI frameworkImport your own custom functionality into Swift PlaygroundsRun Swift on Linux and investigate server-side programming with the server-side framework VaporUse Swift to implement machine learning models using CoreML and VisionWho this book is forThis book is for experienced iOS developers looking to learn about the diverse features offered by Swift 5.3, along with tips and tricks to efficiently code and build applications.
