By AppCoda Weekly • Issue #260 • View online

With the official release of Xcode 14 and iOS 16, our Mastering SwiftUI book is now updated to support the latest version of iOS and Xcode. All the content including screenshots and source code are updated for Xcode 14 and iOS 16. On top of that, we added over 100 pages of new content to teach you the new APIs of SwiftUI.

This SwiftUI book is written for both beginners and intermediate developers who want to learn the new SwiftUI framework. Each chapter of our book has at least one simple project to work on. Through the projects, you will understand how to work with various types of UI elements and build interactive UIs, plus learn the new APIs coming with the latest version of SwiftUI including Grid, Live Text APIs, and AnyLayout.

Once you manage the basics, you will learn how to build a personal finance app with SwiftUI and Combine. All the projects and source code are available for download. You can use them as a reference. And you’re free to use the code in your own projects (personal/commercial).

“Last summer I failed to land an internship at a tech company. I chose to buy your book for $40 and spend my summer learning SwiftUI instead. I picked it up really fast, your book was incredible. I’ve now made several apps, “Receipted” is my first on the App Store. When I started interviewing for internships again this year, I showed off my new SwiftUI apps I’ve made. I ended up getting 8 different offers from different companies!” - Hunter Kingsbeer

Sample Chapters

Creating Bar Charts and Line Charts with the Charts Framework

You no longer need to build your own chart library or rely on third-party libraries to create charts. The SwiftUI framework now comes with the Charts APIs. With the brand new Charts framework in iOS 16, you can present animated charts with just a few lines of code.

ImageRenderer is another new API for SwiftUI that comes with iOS 16. It allows you to easily convert any SwiftUI views into an image. The implementation is very simple.
