| Mastering iOS Frameworks: Beyond the Basics, 2nd Edition from Addison-Wesley Professional | ||||||
Kyle Richter and Joe Keeley focus on intermediate-to-advanced techniques that professional iOS developers can use every day. Their far-reaching coverage ranges from social support to security, Core Data to iCloud–even Apple Watch. Organized as a convenient modular reference, nearly every chapter contains a complete Objective-C sample project. A multi-chapter Game Center case study shows how multiple iOS features can be combined to do even more. Coverage includes: * Adding physics-like animation and behaviors to UIViews * Using Core Location to determine device location, display customized maps, and implement geofencing * Making games and apps social with Leaderboards * Accessing music and image collections * Building health/fitness apps with HealthKit * Integrating with home automation via HomeKit * Passing data between platforms using JSON * Setting up local and remote notifications * Remotely storing and syncing data with CloudKit * Accessing app functionality with extensions * Effortlessly adding AirPrint support * Providing Handoff continuity between iOS 8 and Yosemite devices * Getting productive with Core Data * Integrating Twitter and Facebook via Social Framework * Performing resource-intensive tasks with Grand Central Dispatch * Securing user data with Keychain and Touch ID * Customizing collection views * Making the most of gesture recognizers * Creating and distributing “passes” * Debugging, instrumenting, and profiling apps For more information, visit http://www.informit.com/store/mastering-ios-frameworks-beyond-the-basics-9780134052496. |
