iOS Networking with Swift FREE

In this course, you’ll learn how to incorporate networking into your apps, so they can access data from around the world. You’ll learn how to harness the power of APIs to display images and retrieve movie data. At the end of the course, you’ll build the "On the Map" app which allows you to share interesting links, projects, or other information with fellow Udacity students.Without networking, mobile apps can only perceive, process, and present the data that is local to the host device. This greatly restricts the scope of problems which apps can solve and limits their overall utility. By incorporating networking, apps truly become "mobile" -- they can interact with interesting data using popular web services, coordinate multi-user activities, and build experiences that bring users together.This course will cover concepts fundamental to communication over the network like HTTP, JSON, and authentication. These concepts are also highly transferrable to other platforms, languages, and applications. Additionally, it will mold your understanding of app design, especially when networking constraints are involved.Learn how to incorporate networking into your apps to access data from around the world. Build the On the Map app to share location and fun links with fellow students.
