After learning many concepts and processes the SwiftUI Views Specialist Course from Big Mountain Studio, I thought it appropriate to put the lessons into practice. I elected to try to recreate my old 1st4computing logo in SwiftUI, using only code. I’ve used SwiftUI sub-views for each separate component of the […]

Lesson 9 from the finale added the steps to save to Core Data, after which I embarked on a project of my own. I noted in my first post on this module that Chris was using a version of the Recipe App from Module 4 of the iOS Foundations course […]
