Service and application development for iOS

Course Description

iOS skill offers to students the opportunity to acquire the knowledge needed to create and distribute applications for the iOS operating system in the Swift programming language. Students will learn how to use the XCode development environment, multithreading in iOS applications, making animations and using notifications. Additionally, complex user interfaces for iOS operating system will be presented, along with screen navigation, handling user interface components, and storing data in iOS applications.

Learning Outcomes

  1. Use the basic and complex concepts of the Swift programming language
  2. Use the XCode development environment
  3. Create applications for iOS operating system in Swift programming language
  4. Create user interfaces in iOS applications by using selected frameworks
  5. Use data in applications for iOS operating system
  6. Create animations in user interface
  7. Plan the process of iOS application distribution
