  • @davidmancuso9792
    @davidmancuso9792 Před 3 lety +12

    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.

    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.

  • @OurFantasyLife
    @OurFantasyLife Před 2 lety +14

    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.

  • @jizhou749
    @jizhou749 Před rokem +2

    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.😄

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.
