We’re delighted to have you as a member of our Code 501: Advanced Software Development in iOS course. It'll be a lot of work and a lot of fun. In this course you will study professional techniques and practices as you advance your skills in iOS development. This is the course layout for the 501 iOS Course at Code Fellows. The first 9 weeks of the course we'll be studying Swift. This will be followed by a week long project built by students and written in Swift.

• Adam Wallraff - Lead Instructor

• Create mobile apps using Swift 3.
• Use industry tools and frameworks such as Cocoa, Xcode, UIKit, Git, and more.
• Understand and know how to properly use UIKit, asynchronous code, CoreImage, NSURLSession and JSON, MapKit and CoreLocation, AutoLayout, Source Control, Core Data, Animation, and the app submission process.

Concepts in each of our courses are taught using stacked modules, where a new concept is introduced in each class session, building upon what came before it. This is a challenging style that requires persistence, practice, and collaboration, but allows more concepts to be introduced over the length of the course. This method helps students learn and retain more information in a short period of time.

Get ready to tackle some seriously ambitious material! You'll have the most success if you:

• Take notes, or keep a blog, throughout the duration of the class
• Keep up with all daily assignments
• Research topics that are new or confusing
• Speak up when you're stuck for more than 15 minutes
• AND: Above all else, attention to detail.

• A Mac laptop running Yosemite, or newer, with plenty of free space on the hard drive
• Xcode from the Mac App Store with the command line tools
• A subscription to the Apple Developer Program - $99/year
