What would you recommend using if I wanted to save around 200 movie quotes in a database? Core data or something else?

I have a question about the limitations of user defaults: if I were needing to store like several months worth of text data and have it display that data on a graph, it is appropriate to use this method? The context is on a workout app where you can input your weight and reps and I want it to save that data and show it back to the user on a different tab

Great video! Question: If I'm passing a string from a textview to be displayed on a separate view's textview through the prepare method (using segue identifiers and all that) would I implement this code on the destination view controller's swift file? Also, my data passes and displays correctly on the destination's textview.

Do you recommend using User Defaults to store the account details of a User after logging into our app, for example?

Very useful content, thanks! But the zoom effect is kind of distracting, maybe just highlight.

[psharis]

[chingunk]

[applentonio]
