Our Goal

I am going to be introduced to the wonderful world of Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) to grab live data from the internet. If you’re dreaming of making that Twitter-powered stock trading app then you’re about add some serious tools to your toolbelt!

What you will create

This project is all about making a beautiful, dark-mode enabled weather app. You'll be able to check the weather for the current location based on the GPS data from the iPhone as well as by searching for a city manually.

What you will learn

• How to create a dark-mode enabled app.
• How to use vector images as image assets.
• Learn to use the UITextField to get user input.
• Learn about the delegate pattern.
• Swift protocols and extensions.
• Swift guard keyword.
• Swift computed properties.
• Swift closures and completion handlers.
• Learn to use URLSession to network and make HTTP requests.
• Parse JSON with the native Encodable and Decodable protocols.
• Learn to use Grand Central Dispatch to fetch the main thread.
• Learn to use Core Location to get the current location from the phone GPS.
