An incredible resource for someone getting started. It’s easy to get completely overwhelmed with all of the information and learning paths. Thanks for distilling it down for us!✊🏼

@rahulek914 2 роки тому

Paul, thanks for an excellent overview of the iOS landscape. I am venturing into learning iOS not for a job but as a new field to learn on my continuous learning path as I retire from my 35 year career. I found this overview very useful and focused on important points that really matter. I hope to gain some quick iOS ground by following your advise.

@jizhou749 Рік тому

Thank you Paul, you encouraged me to keep learning my swift & swift UI. I have learned 3 months and know how to do some basic mission. To be honest, it is not easy for me as a rookie in coding industry. I really hope you can make a video to show all the new learners about the routine job we need to do as an ios developer. I am so confused about how to use what I have learned to do works or finish the missions. Thank you. Subscribed.😄

@Skjoldborg8 8 місяців тому

Amazing job once again Paul. So structured, so concise, so Apple-like in the way you precent it all. All in all just all the points I feel I needed to know. Thank you so much for all your work! This is going to be many hours of awesome learning I can tell. 🙏📚

I can only underline that. I will shurly use your advice and your great material

@davidmancuso9792 3 роки тому

OK, me: the mistakes: 1) Memorizing - Got it-I've espoused this to my tech students for years. 2) Shiny Object Syndrome - Man, I thought that was a good thing. Back off, ADHD. 3) Lone wolf learning - Um, that's my main M.O., all my life. How does this Paul know me so well? ;) 4) Relying on Apple's documentation - Man, I was using that for late night reading material. ;) Seriously, point taken. 5) Getting lost in Objective-C - You are preaching to the choir, Master Hudson. 6) Taking shots on other languages - Good advice, especially when a lot of the jobs I see use other languages or scripting in conjunction with Swift (e.g., PHP). Excellent video, worth repeated viewings to help keep a focused perspective. Except the 4-5 hours a day-for me, I need to be soaking in it, and I don't want to do anything to stop this ball from rolling as well as it is. I guess everyone may have one exception to the rule.

@lawrencewayneaustin5790 3 роки тому

I am so grateful for all the continuous contributions in which Paul Hudson makes… sometimes i feel i dont know if I’m able to break through certain learning barriers but just watching his videos and reading his books give me confidence to become relentless in my thought process and applications in learning swift by understanding the basics and go slow to improve faster and better in the future…Thank you so much :-)

That's a great video. I have been learning swift for a year now and my first app was live in 6 months. However, I did hit some points where things got harder and level of motivation went down. With this video, I think I know the mistakes I made as a beginner and I do believe that these information and shared resources will help me get better. Happy learning everyone!!!

@OurFantasyLife 2 роки тому

This has solidified my decision to learn Swift in 2022. I've been half-heartedly trying to learn a language for the last 5 or so years, time to buckle down and like you said, get rid of "shiny object syndrome" and just commit to learning it. Apple isn't going anywhere, and while it might feel "limiting" to learn a specific language, it does open you up to developing for Apple's entire ecosystem, which is nice. I really just want to build a scriptwriting app for myself, but learning the skills that will let me do that will lead to another income source for me as well, so it's a win win.

@dpacheco9588 Рік тому

Well, first of all, I thank you very much for making this video. Almost 1 year ago I arrived in the United States and I started from 0. I currently work at a McDonalds but I have always been interested in the technological world and today, researching and watching your videos, I am motivated to start my learning in the world of mobile development for ios . Thanks to you I have the general topics that I must cover. Now I am looking for a roadmap to delve into each general topic that you gave and know which route I should follow or at least where I should continue to be guided to start this adventure. I love apple and the entire ecosystem, I will persevere on this path.
