15. Stylizing Text Views. String Interpolation, Markdown, Attributed Strings, Measurements, Pluralization with Inflection, and OpenURLAction and Text Renderer
    
16. Calculator. We implement a nice UI based on a beautiful design from dribbble. We support both light and dark mode and discuss state variables.
    
17. Brevis App - Hotkeys. A straightforward yet useful hotkey app designed to work seamlessly on iPhone, iPad, and macOS.
    
18. Recipe App MVVM. This is the first App in the course that covers the MVVM design pattern which is central in this course. We also cover basic navigation and lists and custom views in this section.
    
19. Chinese Continuing App. This app includes unit testing, MVVM architecture, API calls using URLSession, and features a visually appealing splash screen with a random image.
    
20. Fizz Buzz. This app is built around the classic interview question known as Fizz Buzz. We start by exploring Xcode's playground and then progress to developing an app focused on string manipulation. The app implements Fizz Buzz in multiple programming languages, including Swift, Rust, Go, C, and JavaScript/HTML, effectively creating a program that generates other programs. Additionally, we cover how to copy text to the clipboard and explore the context menu.
    
21. HTML to Color Extension. In this section we write code that converts HTML to usable code in SwiftUI. Namely we automate the creation of color extensions which will be used in the Charts App of our course (or in any app for that matter).
    
22. Exploring Charts. We create charts using the SwiftUI Charts framework. Using drag gestures in the charts. Horizontal and vertical bar charts, line charts, area charts.
    
23. Activity Tracker - Pie Charts and Donut Charts with Swift Data. In this section, we dive into creating visual representations of data using pie charts and donut charts in Swift, leveraging Swift Data for robust data management and visualization.
    
24. Line Plots. In this section, we explore line plots with a focus on various intriguing topics. We start by creating random line plots and then move on to examining Lissajous curves, including their parameterizations. We'll also cover essential graphics functions, delve into implementing trigonometric functions, and illustrate the prime number theorem through visual representation. This comprehensive approach provides a solid understanding of how to use line plots to convey complex mathematical concepts and data.
    
25. Core Data Math Game. We create a math game focusing on MVVM and Core Data. In addition like most of the apps in the course, the app supports multiple languages out of the box via localization.
    
26. Swift Data. In this section, we delve into Swift Data, an alternative to Core Data. We will explore its features and benefits, examining how it streamlines data management and integration within Swift applications.
    
27. Building and Deploying Titanic Survival Predictions with CoreML and CreateML. This brief section is designed to give you an introduction to the capabilities of CoreML and CreateML by exploring a practical example: predicting Titanic passenger survival. We’ll start with preparing and preprocessing the Titanic dataset, then use CreateML to train a predictive model, and finally, integrate the model into an iOS app using CoreML. This hands-on exercise will offer a taste of the power and ease of Apple's machine learning tools, demonstrating how they can be applied to real-world data and applications.
    
28. Alarm App. This section is a key highlight of the course.
