Kodeco Book Clubs: SwiftUI Apprentice

We’re excited to announce the launch of our iOS Kodeco Book Club, featuring SwiftUI Apprentice, and you’re invited!

What are Kodeco Book Clubs?

Kodeco Book Clubs are the best and fastest way to get up to speed on key mobile development topics. In these 10 to 12-week sessions, hosted by experts from our team, you’ll get to experience our best-selling books in a live video format, at a relaxed, chapter-by-chapter pace, and really get to understand these concepts in a deep, meaningful way.

When do Kodeco Book Clubs take place?

We’re launching our first book clubs in July 2023: one for iOS, and one for Android. Check the schedule below for detailed dates and times!

Who is the host for the SwiftUI Apprentice Book Club?

Your host for the SwiftUI Apprentice Book Club is expert team member Beau Nouvelle, from the Get Swifty YouTube channel!

Beau is a Full Stack Swift Development Consultant and Indie Developer with over 10 years of iOS and Mac development experience. He’s the author of “Simulations in Swift”, creates content for the GetSwifty YouTube channel, and is a part time mentor for RMITs iOS course. Outside of “work” Beau loves using code to create generative art, messing with electronics, and playing D&D with his Wife and friends. He also has two pups and should probably share photos of them on Twitter more often!

Will the sessions be recorded?

One of our most frequently-asked questions! 😄 Yes, all sessions will be recorded and available on our members-only forums, here:

forums.kodeco.com/c/members-only/book-club-swiftui-apprentice

However, we truly suggest that you try to attend the sessions live, as that is the best way to ask questions of the host “in the moment” as you work through the chapter.

Will there be discussion forums for the book club?

Absolutely! All of our book clubs will have chapter-by-chapter discussion forums in our exclusive members-only section, where you can ask questions outside of the live session.
