Preface Ios Programming Beginners 7th
Welcome to iOS 16 Programming for Beginners. This book is the seventh edition of the iOS Programming for Beginners series, and has been fully updated for iOS 16, macOS 13.0 Ventura, and Xcode 14.
In this Ios Programming Beginners 7th book, you will build a restaurant reservation app called Let’s Eat. You will start off by exploring Xcode, Apple’s programming environment, also known as its Integrated Development Environment (IDE). Next, you will start learning the foundations of Swift, the programming language used in iOS apps, and see how it is used to accomplish common programming tasks.
Once you have a solid foundation of using Swift, you will start creating the user interface of the Let’s Eat app. During this process, you will work with storyboards and connect your app’s scenes together using segues.
With your user interface complete, you will then add code to implement your app’s functionality. To display your data in a grid, you will use collection views, and to display your data in a list, you will use table views. You will also look at how to add basic and custom annotations on to a map. You’ll see how you can use JSON files to get actual restaurant data into your collection views, table views, and map. You’ll enable users to add ratings, reviews and photos for a particular restaurant, which you’ll save using Core Data.
You now have a complete app, but how about adding the latest iOS 16 features? You’ll start by modi- fying your app to work on both iPhone and iPad, and make it work on Macs. Next, you will learn how to develop apps using SwiftUI, a great new way of developing apps for all Apple platforms. After that, you’ll implement widgets for the Lock screen using WidgetKit, and get the weather at a restaurant’s location using WeatherKit.
Finally, you’ll learn how to test your app with internal and external testers, and get it into the App Store.

To complete all the exercises in this Ios Programming Beginners 7th book, you will need:
A Mac computer running macOS 12.0 Monterey, macOS 13.0 Ventura, or later
Xcode 14.0 or later To check if your Mac supports macOS 13.0 Ventura, see this link: https://www.apple.com/my/macos/ macos-ventura-preview/. If your Mac is supported, you can update macOS using Software Update in System Preferences. To get the latest version of Xcode, you can download it from the Mac App Store. Most of the exercises can be completed without an Apple Developer account and use the iOS Simulator. If you wish to test the app you are developing on an actual iOS device, you will need a free or paid Apple Developer account, and the following chapters require a paid Apple Developer account:
Chapter 26, Getting Started with WeatherKit
Chapter 27, Testing and Submitting Your App to the App Store Instructions on how to get a paid Apple Developer account are in Chapter 27, Testing and Submitting Your App to the App Store.
