Develop for the new Apple Watch with Swift
Yes!
It’s no longer a secret. At today’s media extravaganza, Apple announced new iPhones and Apple Watches.
Three months ago, Apple announced a mammoth release of new beta tools for iOS developers: a new version of its iOS mobile operating system, and a brand new programming language called Swift.
Swift had come as a big surprise. Swift is Apple’s first new programming language in decades and is designed to replace the old language, Objective-C.
Why is it better to learn Swift than Objective-C? Apple explains it succinctly: “Swift makes it easier than ever for developers to create incredible apps.” Furthermore, anything you can do in Objective-C, you can do in Swift. The future of iPhone, iPad, and even Apple Watch app development is clear: Swift.Udacity is hard at work creating an iOS Developer Nanodegree, and Swift will be taught and used extensively throughout.
Sign up for updates on the nanodegree and we’ll keep you posted on how you can take your Swift and iOS development skills to the next level.
