Lesson 1: Introduction (Tools and Materials)
This lesson is an orientation of what you need to start making apps and the tools and resources that Apple provides.

This video series uses the latest and greatest from Apple (Xcode 8, Swift 3, iOS 10) and will teach a beginner with no programming experience how to make iPhone apps. I'm creating these videos with the assumption that the student has no prior knowledge and is starting from scratch.

ABOUT ME

Hi I’m Chris! I’m dedicated to teaching fundamentals about how to make an app. This is important if you’re trying to land an iOS job, be a freelancer, increase or start a business with an app idea. On the site, you'll find a ton of free resources and tutorials to aid you on your journey to learn iOS development. Many people have successfully picked up Swift 4, Xcode 9 and app building from my course and materials!

Here's just a sample of the success stories my students have sent in:

I am very satisfied with Chris' technique of teaching. Code can be a little challenging and he teaches in a clear and concise method.

1st lesson was very clear. I programmed back in 2010 for the IOS, and even had several apps in the app store. I hated Objective-C and found out that i hate it to much to deal with it as a hobby.
Lets see if Swift will be better. I am an embedded software programmer, so lets see what Swift can do to make it more fun.

BTW - your voice is very clear and at the right speed even for non native English people.

Ok let's start. I need an Apple See you in a couple of years.

I've started a hobby to write an iPhone app for work. I'm an auditor in the guardianship dept for the Clerk of Courts. Guardians have trouble with the requirements for reporting, and I developed a quick and dirty excel spreadsheet for the calculations. I thought it might be helpful if they could have an app handy to let them know. Inputting the start date and calculating & displaying the due dates as output will be the result of the app. Thanks for your videos! I'm doing this on my time at night and on weekends. I need this hobby to escape from the real world!

Dude! Thanks for following up with Swift 3/ Xcode 8. Apple keeps changing it and it takes awhile for videos to catch up with the current release. Thanks you!

Actually you can just install OS X via VMWare on Machine running windows. It works well for me and have just started to learn and code Swift on Xcode.
