Objective-C for Swift Developers

Swift is a powerful, modern programming language that will continue to grow over the years ahead. But with over a million existing apps written in Objective-C, you almost certainly need to be able to read, write, and maintain both Swift and Objective-C if you want to score a great job making iOS apps. 

Objective-C for Swift Developers is an accelerated course designed to teach you Objective-C by drawing parallels with your existing Swift knowledge. It includes three complete projects for you to complete, along with example solutions, plus a hands-on video where I walk you through converting a Swift project to Objective-C so you can see exactly how it all works.
