Hi everyone, my name is Eliot and I created the complete iOS 8 course with Swift. I have a passion for all things Apple and I'm super excited about the latest changes to iOS.

If you have any questions i'll be checking in on this thread during the day along with the co-creator John Nichols.

If you are unsure about the platform or our style of teaching you can register for our iOS 7 course for free which is taught in Objective-C: http://bitfountain.io/course/the-complete-ios-7-course-learn...

I'm also available on twitter: @EliotArntz or by email eliot@bitfountain.io




Would you recommend taking the iOS7 course before the iOS8?

I do some mobile web development and I was looking to learn about native iOS app dev.


This course was designed for students with 0 programming knowledge. While I agree Objective-C can give you a deeper understanding of coding iOS feel free to jump right into this course especially since this will be easier to follow with the current tools. Plus learning the latest thing is always more fun.


I wondered what level this was designed for and didn't see that information at first glance (found it after seeing this comment). It might be a good idea to specify higher up on the page or under a separate header? I imagine that's information a lot of people are looking for…


Absolute beginners to coding and people experienced technologies other than iOS.


Do you recommend this course for someone who is building apps for app store with objectiveC and just want to learn Swift
