Are you interested in programming in swift, but aren’t sure where to begin? The bootcamps listed on this page make it possible to learn switch programming in a reasonable time-frame. Some of these programs even have job guarantees that require no up-front payment until you are employed as a Swift developer.
What is Swift? The swift coding language was developed by Apple in 2014 and is used for iOS, macOS, watchOS, tvOS, and Linux. Swift won the Most Loved Programming Language in the Stack Overflow Developer Survey in 2015. According to Apple “Writing Swift code is interactive and fun, the syntax is concise yet expressive, and Swift includes modern features developers love. Swift code is safe by design, yet also produces software that runs lightning-fast.”
Swift Developers make over $90,000 annually, and with Apple’s constant updates, its no surprise these jobs are in high-demand. If you’d like to get started learning Swift, check out the courses and programs below.
