Background Tasks in iOS

Launching your iOS app in the background and performing some tasks wasn’t all that easy. However, in iOS 13 Apple introduced an all new framework called Background Tasks. It’s incredibly powerful framework that allows you to launch your iOS application in the background and perform some important tasks ready when your users return. In this course we’re going to explore the all new framework and build out a sample project to update a list of music from the iTunes API.
