1

00:00:00,600 --> 00:00:07,500

We are ready to make our very first app, so go ahead, open up Xcode, and there are two ways we can



2

00:00:07,500 --> 00:00:08,440

make our first app.



3

00:00:08,790 --> 00:00:13,650

One is to click create new Xcode project, or you can go to file new.



4

00:00:16,100 --> 00:00:22,220

Project, when you click that, you are presented with a little Wizzit to run through.



5

00:00:22,880 --> 00:00:29,540

We can have an app, a document app, a game, etc, etc, frameworks, libraries, we got Mako's at



6

00:00:29,540 --> 00:00:32,060

the top, we got watch post-box, etc..



7

00:00:32,780 --> 00:00:37,430

You can also click multiplatform game or swift package.



8

00:00:38,210 --> 00:00:43,160

For now we're just going to use iOS and a basic app click.



9

00:00:43,160 --> 00:00:47,110

Next, it will ask you for your product name.



10

00:00:48,170 --> 00:00:52,400

What are we going to call this green space torch.



11

00:00:53,490 --> 00:00:54,240

Let's get that right.



12

00:00:56,220 --> 00:00:57,520

It will ask you for your team.



13

00:00:58,620 --> 00:01:01,480

Well, that's my company name registered under Apple.



14

00:01:02,250 --> 00:01:06,570

I'm not sure what this is going to look like if you don't have a developer account, but I do know that



15

00:01:06,570 --> 00:01:08,220

you can still run through this.



16

00:01:09,500 --> 00:01:13,550

The interface, you have two choices, Swiftie and Storyboard.



17

00:01:13,940 --> 00:01:21,350

Now, Swiftie is the latest greatest thing from Apple to create user interfaces, but because it's new,



18

00:01:21,770 --> 00:01:23,500

everyone still uses storyboards.



19

00:01:23,510 --> 00:01:25,240

It's only the pioneers going to Swiftie.



20

00:01:25,700 --> 00:01:30,470

You don't need swift UI at this point, and probably not for the next five to 10 years.



21

00:01:30,860 --> 00:01:35,420

Storyboard will continue to be the dominant way to be the interface of your app.



22

00:01:37,030 --> 00:01:43,330

Life-cycle, you like Kit App delegate, I'll explain what life cycles are as we go through everything,



23

00:01:43,540 --> 00:01:47,740

because I don't want to fill your head with too much stuff right now and then we have language swift



24

00:01:47,740 --> 00:01:48,310

or objective.



25

00:01:48,310 --> 00:01:49,720

C Well obviously swift.



26

00:01:49,720 --> 00:01:55,270

It's a much nicer, cleaner language than objective C and we have an option to use core data.



27

00:01:55,450 --> 00:01:59,380

That's basically the database that's built in to iOS.



28

00:01:59,860 --> 00:02:01,360

But we don't need it for this app.



29

00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:06,310

And I would say in almost 100 percent of apps don't use Chordata.



30

00:02:06,310 --> 00:02:07,710

It's really complicated.



31

00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:12,400

It's better to use something like SQL Lite, but we'll get into that.



32

00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:16,570

We can include tests if we want, but I'm going to check that.



33

00:02:17,930 --> 00:02:19,180

Let's hit next.



34

00:02:19,180 --> 00:02:21,580

It'll ask you where you want to save it.



35

00:02:21,850 --> 00:02:26,710

So we have this little desktop area here.



36

00:02:26,710 --> 00:02:31,750

I'm going to create that and it should save it under his own folder called Screen Torch.



37

00:02:31,750 --> 00:02:33,190

I can see it's happened at the corner.



38

00:02:35,590 --> 00:02:39,940

Right, and it says, no, all the information was supplied, don't care about that, just click cancel.



39

00:02:40,060 --> 00:02:41,300

You can change all of that.



40

00:02:42,130 --> 00:02:45,940

Now, let's get you a little bit familiar just with the interface.



41

00:02:47,470 --> 00:02:54,040

Over on this side of my mouth is where we have screen torture, a bunch of folders and files, we have



42

00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:58,770

a bunch of files that basically will contain all the code of our app.



43

00:02:59,260 --> 00:03:06,940

What you see there is the bare template required to get an application to work on an iOS simulator or



44

00:03:06,940 --> 00:03:07,450

device.



45

00:03:08,260 --> 00:03:10,840

When we're editing stuff, we'll just be clicking these.



46

00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:16,210

If you double click them, you're going to open up that particular item and you'll see we have code



47

00:03:16,210 --> 00:03:16,830

and things there.



48

00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:23,290

So that brings us to the center of the screen where you do all of your code editing.



49

00:03:23,290 --> 00:03:28,390

So important UI kit, class view controller, you've done the first parts of this course or my basic



50

00:03:28,430 --> 00:03:30,610

drift course is you'll know what this means already.



51

00:03:32,330 --> 00:03:32,870

Right.



52

00:03:32,900 --> 00:03:33,790

What else have we got?



53

00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:39,740

We've got things like a main storyboard, storyboards are the graphical element of your app.



54

00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:46,160

Whenever you're coding, it's a good idea to keep the storyboard separate from the code is just good



55

00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:47,000

coding practice.



56

00:03:48,710 --> 00:03:56,330

If you click something in the storyboard on the right, we get a whole bunch of options to change that



57

00:03:56,330 --> 00:03:57,380

particular item.



58

00:03:57,600 --> 00:04:01,510

So that's where we change the properties of the item in the storyboard.



59

00:04:02,150 --> 00:04:05,830

I'm going to close storyboard because we're not going to use that for now, right?



60

00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:11,900

Once everything is up and running and sorted and you want to actually test your app and all you have



61

00:04:11,900 --> 00:04:19,040

to do is hit play in the top left corner and that's going to load the app onto whichever device you've



62

00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:21,120

selected in this top menu.



63

00:04:21,620 --> 00:04:25,820

So if you just click the device name, you can select literally anything you like.



64

00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:31,540

If you click the first item, we start to get a little more complex, so we're not going to touch that,



65

00:04:32,300 --> 00:04:34,090

we're just going to go for the device.



66

00:04:34,700 --> 00:04:35,720

Now, where's the device?



67

00:04:35,750 --> 00:04:36,220

Here it is.



68

00:04:36,230 --> 00:04:40,340

It's loading an iPod Touch and the app is actually loaded.



69

00:04:41,230 --> 00:04:46,900

I know that because I can see the code at the bottom says it's loaded, but there is nothing to display



70

00:04:46,900 --> 00:04:49,210

because we have a basic white screen.



71

00:04:49,660 --> 00:04:50,710

So that's your first app.



72

00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:57,570

That's your familiarisation around Xcode and that's how to load the app onto a simulator.
