My experience building Bull's Eye App (from the UIKIt Apprentice book) Part 1

Hey Community,

I'm here with another blog sharing my experience of reading the UIKIt Apprentice book from Kodeco (THE NEW RAYWENDERLICH.COM). The reason why I decided to dive deep into this book is to learn more about UIKit.

The book takes you through a series of learning the fundamentals of UIKit through building projects. The first project is building a Bull's Eye application through interface builder.

The goal of the project is to teach Xcode, Interface Builder, and Swift in an easy-to-understand manner for beginners like myself.

So far I have learned how to create a very basic single button application which shows an alert message

I have also learned about implementing sliders and labels on interface builder.

Some things I have learned were:

  • Switching the apps to landscape mode
  • Basics of object-orientated Programming
  • Added controls to start building the user interface of the app
  • setting the inital slider value
  • learned how to generate a random number
  • added rounds to the game
  • display the target value

I'll be doing part 2 where i will talk about adding scores to the application
