The idea is simple. Cocoacasts Plus offers high quality screencasts about Swift and Cocoa development. It's a perfect fit for any developer, junior and senior, interested in Swift and Cocoa.
Even though each screencast focuses on a particular topic, you learn a lot more by watching someone build applications and write robust code. That's probably what students like most about Cocoacasts.
"I actually had several subscriptions prior to this, and I think they served me well as a beginner, but man, cocoacasts is really something else when it comes to introducing more advanced topics. I've been a senior iOS dev for quite some time now, and I've been having a hard time growing as a dev when nobody in the company is above me when it comes to the technical aspect. I know squat about core data, barely knew SwiftUI, and other fundamentals. Cocoacasts is a lifesaver! I was able to convert over 50% of our legacy code from an MVVM-C <-> MVC + Singleton Frankenstein UIKit code to proper MVVM-C SwiftUI code, and armed with my new Combine powers + core data + the caching vids, I was able to make asynchronous network fetches much more efficient to the point that the app went from 15+ network fetches on startup to roughly around 4! Please keep doing what you're doing. You're the only subscription I kept alive because I'm getting so much out of it. Kudos!"
If you're like me, then you don't have time to browse the web for free tutorials that may include the answer you're looking for. Are you sure that what you're learning is up to date? And does it stick to good practices?
Cocoacasts Plus focuses on the aspects of Swift and Cocoa development that matter. They help you grow as a developer. I help you move the needle by cutting through the noise. You can see me as a coach guiding you along your journey.
"I think Cocoacasts is the best online iOS Dev training, better than competitors with scores of trainers on their team. Bart manages to keep the videos clear and concise, with the written version alongside. I can't recommend it highly enough."
My name is Bart Jacobs and I'm the founder of Code Foundry, a mobile development company. I've been teaching since 2004 and I currently focus primarily on teaching Swift developers how to create robust, scalable applications for Apple's platforms using Swift and the Cocoa frameworks.
I'm crazy about film music and I have a soft spot for tea and coffee. I'm currently weaned off coffee, but we'll see how long that lasts.
Don't take my word for it.
"Even though I was already familiar with MVVM, Bart's course showed me a different perspective on MVVM by refactoring a complete application built with MVC. He illustrates how MVVM can improve a project's architecture and testability, and how reactive programming fits in."
"Cocoacasts Plus is for me. The content is awesome and the commitment is great. I'm a Mobile Developer Advocate at AWS and my focus is on iOS. I use your best practices when providing samples, tutorials, or writing snippets of code for a blog."
"It has been a pleasure to work with Bart. I've found him to be diligent, conscientious, and reliable. His own competence has made my job much easier. And his skill as an iOS developer continues to amaze me."
"Bart helped me understand and implement MVVM in an existing project that suffered from Massive View Controller syndrome. We analyzed the problem, developed a strategy, and refactored the view controller, using MVVM and reactive programming. The result is a lean view controller and a focused view model that's easy to test."
"This is one of the finest Swift material available on the internet. Thank you."
"A big thank you. This has been the single most effective course I've taken about iOS. I put it into practice right away and our App Store app, and its testing, has benefited greatly."
"This is by far the best explanation of Core Data I have read. After working on my first Core Data project for the last three days, I actually understand what you are saying here."
"Wow, I really love these tutorials. Great job. You are very good at explaining things from the ground up in a way that is both fast (not boring) and yet comprehensive."
I would never want you to be unhappy. If you're unsatisfied with your purchase, contact me at bart at cocoacasts dot com within the first 30 days and I'll give you a full refund.
