Apple's Swift is a powerful, beginner-friendly programming language that anyone can use to make cool apps for the iPhone or iPad. In Coding iPhone Apps for Kids , you'll learn how to use Swift to write programs, even if you've never programmed before. You'll work in the Xcode playground, an interactive environment where you can play with your code and see the results of your work immediately You'll learn the fundamentals of programming too, like how to store data in arrays, use conditional statements to make decisions, and create functions to organize your code--all with the help of clear and patient explanations. Once you master the basics, you'll build a birthday tracker app so that you won't forget anyone's birthday and a platform game called Schoolhouse Skateboarder with animation, jumps, and more As you begin your programming adventure, you'll learn how to: -Build programs to save you time, like one that invites all of your friends to a party with just the click of a button -Program a number-guessing game with loops to make the computer keep guessing until it gets the right answer -Make a real, playable game with graphics and sound effects using SpriteKit -Challenge players by speeding up your game and adding a high-score systemWhy should serious adults have all the fun?

Reviews
"If you have a young one around this summer and are looking for a good book for them to use to learn Swift, check out Coding iPhone Apps for Kids ." --Rob Walch, Today in iOS "A great -- and very affordable -- place to launch the skill of app development. The book is a do-it-yourself challenge to all learners." --Getting Smart "While Coding iPhone Apps for Kids is specifically intended for children ages 10 and older, it is so well constructed as a do-it-yourself instructional guide that it is unreservedly recommended for adults who would like to learn how to create iPhone apps of their own." --Midwest Book Review "I highly recommend Coding iPhone Apps for Kids for a fun way to learn coding." --MyMac "The book begins with coding a simple app, and by the end the reader can make a game he or she will be proud of. " --School Library Connection
