[Year 12 SofDev] Xcode and Swift in Software development

[Adam Clissold]

Hi All,

I am doing Swift for the first time at 12 this year, moving from VB. What I
found was there was lots of tutorials out there but not many that suited
the requirements of the course. I am just finishing putting together an
iBook with all of the resources I have given my students as well as video
tutorials. When I am done I am happy to send it out for people to have a
look at.

Cheers,
Adam
