1
Advanced Swift: Protocol Oriented Programming
Swift protocol oriented programming gives you the power of object oriented programming with better composability and without the baggage of class inheritance.
2
Advanced Swift: Generics and Protocols
The generics system and protocols are the heart of the Swift language. Learn how it all fits together in this course.
3
Advanced Swift: Values and References
Swift mutation model uses values and references to improve local reasoning and maintain performance. Find out the details in this course.
4
Advanced Swift: Types and Operations
An idea central to Swift is to use types to guarantee correctness. Find out how in this course focused on types and operations.
5
Advanced Swift: Sequences, Collections and Algorithms
Sequences, collections and algorithms in the Swift language are an amazing abstraction that you really need to know about. Learn the details in this course.
6
Advanced Swift: Memory Management
Memory management works like magic most of the time - until it doesn't. Find out what you need to watch out for in this course.
7
Advanced Swift: Unsafe Memory Access
Did you know you can call C-malloc straight from Swift? Swift lets access the machine at its lowest level. This course will show you how.
8
Advanced Swift: Error Handling
Production code is all about handling errors: programming errors, user input errors, asynchronous errors. This course covers the error fundamentals you need to know.

After completing this learning path…

…you’ll understand Swift at a deeper level, and you’ll be able to use advanced Swift features in your own projects, to build more elegant, robust, and easy-to-maintain apps in Swift.
