From Sketch Design to iOS App with Swift and Xcode

From Sketch Design to iOS App with Swift and Xcode

This course is going to guide you through the complete process of designing a cool iOS app and then also build it from start to finish.

If you want to create apps that stand out you need the ability to translate a great user interface design from its concept stage as wireframes, mockups or interactive prototypes into a fully functional app.

Among other things you will learn:

• The fundamental iOS design principles

• Basics of designing and prototyping in Sketch

• How to design an app and then create it from start to finish

• How to customize UIKit components like buttons, collection views or the navigation bar

• How to work with custom views and xib files

• How to create awesome transition animations: implementing a custom and animated view controller transition from a collection view cell to a new view controller

• How to create simple animations

Become a more skilled developer

This course is suitable for you if you have already made your first experiences in building apps using Xcode and Swift. You won’t have to be an expert developer or an experienced designer. You will however learn a lot of useful tricks and techniques that will also broaden your general knowledge around the processes of designing and developing iOS apps with the powerful tools Sketch, Xcode and the Swift programming language.

Our Roadmap

Before writing our first line of code we are going to have a look at fundamental iOS design principles followed by a quick introduction into Sketch. Sketch is a powerful tool for designing and prototyping and after completing this course you will be able to design your own application with it. Before building a complete iOS app, we are going to make a solid development plan starting with an app idea, the design of several mockups followed by a the creation of a simple prototype. Not until then are we going to launch Xcode.

In the actual development part of this course you are going to setup the user interface in Interface Builder, work with a modern data model, customize different UIKit components, and even create an awesome custom animated transition between two view controllers. For more detailed information about the content of this course have a look at the curriculum and the free videos.

You get this course complete with all the necessary project files, so that you’ll be able to work alongside the author as you work through each concept. In addition you will receive a verifiable certificate of completion upon finishing the course.
