Using leading and trailing is actually more convenient in terms of localization. if your app supports both LTR and RTL, you will appreciate that, for example, leading means LEFT in English or RIGHT for Arabic for example while trailing means RIGHT in English or LEFT in Arabic
Ooooo I did not think of that! Damn Apple you win this one 😂
⁰
Just paused the video to comment the same thing. I recently watched a video about using arabic on an iOS device and how the entire UI changes, from icons’ position in the menus, to the entire screen being mirrored - i.e. your app positions will be flipped on screen. My like goes to you!
As a full stack web dev, this was very helpful
Can you please talk more about extracting functionalities and putting them into an external server?
Amazing video by the way, I totally agree especially since i have a React Native background.
3:51 it wasn't supposed to end this abruptly was it? did anyone else notice? lol
it's weird no is talking about it
So, if understand correctly, you want to keep the actual iOS app super basic
and you're doing most of the processing on Cloud functions ? So it's like you created your library online and using it locally.
But the problem is: what if you need Apple SDK ? Let's say to interact with a Watch?
I would be overwhelmed with creating an hybrid monster but it's still doable I guess.
Trailing and Leading in swiftUI doesn’t means left and right, it means where the language text direction begins from, and where it ends. On a Left to Right language trailing = right and leading=left but on a Right to left language like Persian it’s the opossite. This small change can solve so many UI placement issues when switching to a RTL language. You might think that CSS also has a direction attribute but as a Persian user I have seen so many websites, WP plugins break just for this simple reason😢
I am still learning about web development, ten months in and I am using React for creating projects I even tried React Native. I am having a lot of fun creating websites or creating toy projects like calculators or even creating pictures using in HTML svg. Creating applications despite the fact they are simple because I am fairly new with software development, I am amazed by what you can create with JavaScript. Getting to the point, there was a point where I thought I was on the wrong path with web development. But when I tried iOS development, I was disappointed. The UIKIT is nothing like CSS, it lacks versatility. My experience with UIKT was disappointing. I tried creating I guess widgets and it felt so generic in comparison to CSS flexbox or grid. Or even simple styling of colors and hover states. Maybe it is just me? Maybe I should have given it more of a try? But I feel you can do so much more with JavaScript and CSS that iOS pales in comparison. Who knows? Maybe I will try it again in the near future and feel differently? This is only my personal experience, I am not an expert just a newbies experience, thank you Average Tech Bro for the video.
Bro I did check your app as a iOS dev I should say there are lots of improvements that can be done.
iOS vs react Native for long term job ?
Thanks for this! I just uploaded my first app and that review process was just like you said. What video program did you use to make the text pop up as you talk? I thought it was cool.
Also when you said that you made a app just a container with firebase, did you use the WKWebview? I thought apple didn’t allow webview apps?
I used Descript - here's an affiliate link to it: www.descript.com/?lmref=Oajkuw
Nope, I just used firebase for the backend. No webview was used.
Nice video. I’m iOS developer and this was pretty neat video. Nice editing:)
Can you tell me the process?? Did you only learn swift??
Leading and trailing are for languages that are read from right to left
that's what I learned from a previous comment - I guess Apple was right all along haha
What backend did you use?
Dude thats an awesome app I’ll get it
Leading and trailing are the correct typographic terms. Don’t blame Apple for allowing you to develop front facing UI this long without knowing them.
My ignorance is to blame for this one - sorry about that 🙂
Definitely realize now that leading and trailing are better!
no hot reloading? Are you not using Swift previews with the canvas? Also the leading and trailing is smarter than CSS, because it's meant to work for languages that don't read from left to right.
Average Tech Bro, for full stack would you recommend JavaScript and PHP for corporate jobs? Or is it smarter to focus on JavaScript and Java? Or would you recommend a third option? Thanks.
If you're learning completely from scratch I would just do Javascript frontend (React) and backend (Express)
@@YourAverageTechBro thanks Average Tech I appreciate the advice.
what is the thing spinning behind him
Good app idea
Is Xcode mostly front end interactions and interfaces? If you have a backend and database for your Web application but want to create an IOS app using the same database, would you use an API or how would you go about setting up a backend and database for IOS?
Any recommendations? Is it a good idea to just call the same http rest APIs from the ios app?
The integrated URLSession is pretty decent and there is Alamofire. There is also a protobuf library. If you want to create the API you could use the Vapor framework.
I tried many courses but just can't seem to wrap my head around ios development (i have a cs degree and have studied much more complex topics). Any suggestions for learning resources to get on track in a short time?
I actually think Apple’s code tutorial is really good. You build an app called “scrumdinger” and you learn a lot. That’s what I used!
i advise you to follow Swiftful Thinking on CZcams, he has very good playlists ordered by difficulty and he's an amazing teacher.
@@leithoune just checked him out the topics seem really good but the problem is that they are all using SwiftUI
@@hazemayman2849 What are you looking for ?
@@leithoune including uikit might be nice since most companies still use it. I've found a good introductory course on Sean Allen's channel that seems to be doing the job will up till now
You don't need approval from apple if you only increase the build number.
I'm a full stack web developer with close to 5 years exp. I'm diving into iOS now and agree with everything you said in this video. I'm using codecademy to learn it.
I didn’t know about anything programming. I want to start with ios developement, How i will start my journey?
Which online courses you suggest?
I’m curious, I’m a web dev here looking at learning iOS dev through Codecademy too. What was their career path for iOS dev like?
@@rifatahmed4898 Angela Yu's course on Udemy is the best. It gave me enough skills to polish further which helped me get a job.
@@zainahmed5320 Thank You
@@zainahmed5320Angela's courses are heavily outdated and I don't recommend them
I've always hated CSS. Now I'm building an app using React Native. I wish to learn and develop native apps using swift. I'm not sure about the job prospect though.
Tons of job opportunities with Swift! I wouldn't worry too much about that.
As an iOS Dev it depends where you live and otherwise swift is very demanding even tho u don't have great skills .
@@natgenesis5038 Agreed. iOS development tends to be focused more around tech centres like San Francisco, NYC, London etc. There are quite a few remote roles out there though, although probably not recommended to start that way as a junior developer.
You won't get a job in mobile development if you have no work experience. Speaking from experience
Hi, do you think iOS development is good career path if I want to be full time freelancer?
Most definitely
What’s up with the ending
Should I learn web development before learning iOS development?
imo yes. I'd learn react for web development and then you can also build mobile apps with react native and then later on if you want to you can learn to build apps with Swift/Kotlin
I start my career as a iOS developer. But I don't have much knowledge on backend developing, cloud, aws. I want to switch my career to Backend Development from iOS development. Will it be a good decision.
Try Vapor . Its in Swift on backend
and you are god damn true !!
is mac air 256gb enough for ios dev?
Are u selling ios apps ??
cool video)
2:00 haha a few seconds
Interesting 😌
Glad you found it interesting 🙂
"...whenever you make any changes and you want to deploy them, you don't have to get permission from anybody to do so." Unless your website violates the hosting provider's ideological fantasies. In which case you just get canceled.
ANYONE WANT TO SELL IOS APPS
BUDGET $600 PER APP
