iOS 18 App Development Essentials - Developing iOS Apps with SwiftUI Swift and Xcode 16

Neil Smyth

Sinossi

This book aims to teach the skills necessary to build iOS 18 applications using SwiftUI, Xcode 16, and the Swift programming language.

Beginning with the basics, this book outlines the steps to set up an iOS development environment, together with an introduction to using Swift Playgrounds to learn and experiment with Swift.

The book also includes in-depth chapters introducing the Swift programming language, including data types, control flow, functions, object-oriented programming, property wrappers, structured concurrency, and error handling.

A guided tour of Xcode in SwiftUI development mode follows an introduction to the key concepts of SwiftUI and project architecture. The book also covers creating custom SwiftUI views and explains how these views are combined to create user interface layouts, including stacks, frames, and forms.

Other topics covered include data handling using state properties and observable, state, and environment objects, as are key user interface design concepts such as modifiers, lists, tabbed views, context menus, user interface navigation, and outline groups.

The book also includes chapters covering graphics and chart drawing, user interface animation, view transitions and gesture handling, WidgetKit, Live Activities, document-based apps, Core Data, SwiftData, and CloudKit.

Chapters also explain how to integrate SwiftUI views into existing UIKit-based projects and integrate UIKit code into SwiftUI.

Finally, the book explains how to package up a completed app and upload it to the App Store for publication.

Along the way, the topics covered in the book are put into practice through detailed tutorials, the source code for which is also available for download, and over 50 online knowledge test quizzes.

The aim of this book, therefore, is to teach you the skills to build your own apps for iOS 18 using SwiftUI. Assuming you are ready to download the iOS 18 SDK and Xcode 16 and have an Apple Mac system, you are ready to get started.

The Mathematical Principles of...

Issac Newton

"If I have seen further, it is by standing on the shoulders of giants."

This is the book that launched the scientific age. Sir Isaac Newton's Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica (often simply The Principia) is arguably the single most important work in the history of science, defining the world for centuries to come.

First published in 1687, this masterpiece of classic science laid out the three laws of motion and the law of universal gravitation, explaining everything from the orbit of the planets to the trajectory of a cannonball. Newton didn't just describe the universe; he provided the mathematical tools (Calculus developed by him and Leibniz) to understand it.

In this seminal work, you will find:

Newton's Laws of Motion: The bedrock of classical physics.

Universal Gravitation: The mathematical proof for why and how objects attract each other.

The Foundation of Calculus: The analytical engine for solving problems in theoretical physics and astronomy.

A Classic of Philosophy: A monumental treatise on how the universe naturally works, governed by immutable mathematical principles.

Essential reading for students, scholars, and anyone interested in the history of science, The Principia remains a testament to human reason and one of the great intellectual achievements of Western civilization.

Finding Genius: Stories Told by...

Richard Jacobs

A lifelong fascination with all things bones. A four-decades-long hunt for the specimens of 2,500+ species past and present. An unwavering desire to preserve, appreciate, and display this rich history of life on Earth. 
These things led to the establishment of the largest privately-held collection of osteological pieces in the world; a place where science displays are more like works of art ... capturing the attention of every eye that lands upon them, and telling a profound story without uttering a single word. 
I'm Richard Jacobs. A casual trip with my family to a bone museum sparked a number of observations that I found too intriguing not to share. 
Enjoy. And please, never stop being curious, and never stop asking questions – the good ones can lead to the greatest discoveries of mankind.

Roadkill - Unveiling the True...

Henrietta Moore, Arthur Kay

Roadkill: Unveiling the True Cost of Our Toxic Relationship with Cars, by Professor Henrietta Moore and Arthur Kay, explores the philosophical implications of car culture, as well as the practical impacts it has on your money, your taxes, your neighborhood, your planet, your health, and your happiness. 
 
While the car has been marketed as a symbol of "freedom", the authors convincingly argue that it has limited the flourishing of our cities and restricted our choices. How can we fix our toxic relationship with cars? The authors offer a new way of thinking that promises to multiply your choices, improve your city, and expand your freedoms.  
 
Inside the book, you'll find real-world examples of the human and monetary costs imposed by cars; philosophical arguments explaining how car-centric cities restrict the freedoms of drivers and non-drivers alike; a catalogue of ideas and approaches for urban designers, transport planners, policymakers, and mayors; and much more. 
 
Roadkill is a persuasive and illuminating call to action for city dwellers, drivers, environmentalists, urbanists, and policymakers―anyone interested in practical ways to improve your life and expand your freedoms.

Autobiography of a Seaman Vol 1

Lord Thomas Cochrane

This two volume work is the autobiography of Lord Cochrane, a naval captain of the Napoleonic period. His adventures are seminal to the development of naval fiction as a genre. Marryat sailed with Cochrane, while later writers borrowed incidents from this biography for their fictions. Most notable among these is Patrick O'Brian, three of whose novels have clear parallels to incidents in the life of Cochrane. This first volume covers Cochrane's earlier life, during which he is most active militarily. (Introduction by Timothy Ferguson)
