Harrison Ferrone

Whether you're new to programming or a seasoned professional, tackling a new programming language can be challenging. In this course, Harrison Ferrone helps you comfortably make the transition to a new language—Swift 3—by taking you through the basics of Swift 3 syntax, while highlighting the creativity and potential of the language itself. Harrison starts by covering basic variable types and operators, as well as collections, tuples, and enumerations.

Whether you're new to programming or a seasoned professional, tackling a new programming language can be challenging. In this course, Harrison Ferrone helps you comfortably make the transition to a new language—Swift 3—by taking you through the basics of Swift 3 syntax, while highlighting the creativity and potential of the language itself. Harrison starts by covering basic variable types and operators, as well as collections, tuples, and enumerations.

Next, he moves on to use cases with Swift optionals, closures, and protocols. When you wrap up this course, you'll have a solid understanding of the Swift 3 language and be ready to move on to creating your own iOS or macOS apps and games. Mostrar menos

Game programmers and designers are often left to fend for themselves when learning how to write, structure, and manage efficient event systems of their own making.

This course has two goals: (1) to convey how fundamental programming patterns and industry standards apply to game development and (2) to equip developers with the theoretical tools needed to inject their projects with engaging narratives, resulting in emotional player investment that comes with story-driven gameplay… Mostrar más

Game programmers and designers are often left to fend for themselves when learning how to write, structure, and manage efficient event systems of their own making.

This course has two goals: (1) to convey how fundamental programming patterns and industry standards apply to game development and (2) to equip developers with the theoretical tools needed to inject their projects with engaging narratives, resulting in emotional player investment that comes with story-driven gameplay.

This course also covers story-driven game design theory, creating the building blocks of an interactive system, abstracting building blocks into a scalable management class, and more. Mostrar menos

A test-driven approach to development makes us more pragmatic, efficient, and creative software developers. TDD is especially critical in the mobile world, where a flexible, modular, quality codebase isn't an option; it's a requirement to launch.

This course aims to better equip iOS developers with a model for developing strong, scalable, and tested code from the very first line. Start with some test-driven theory, progress to the fundamentals, and then build a small application that… Mostrar más

A test-driven approach to development makes us more pragmatic, efficient, and creative software developers. TDD is especially critical in the mobile world, where a flexible, modular, quality codebase isn't an option; it's a requirement to launch.

This course aims to better equip iOS developers with a model for developing strong, scalable, and tested code from the very first line. Start with some test-driven theory, progress to the fundamentals, and then build a small application that will put everything you learned to good use.

Along the way, find out how to write your first unit test using Swift and the XCTest framework, and conduct interface testing specifically for UITableViews. Instructor Harrison Ferrone helps you understand TDD theory and practice, enabling you to write coherent tests that reveal the true weaknesses in your code long before it ever goes to production.
