Frequently asked question

An iOS development course teaches you how to build applications for Apple's iOS operating system, using tools and languages such as Swift and Xcode. These courses typically cover everything from basic programming concepts to advanced app development techniques.

While prior programming experience can be beneficial, many iOS development courses are designed for beginners and start with foundational programming concepts. However, having a basic understanding of programming logic and problem-solving can help you grasp the material more quickly.

Most iOS development courses focus on Swift, Apple's modern programming language designed for iOS and macOS development. Some courses might also cover Objective-C, especially if you're learning about legacy codebases or working with older projects.

You will primarily need a Mac computer with macOS to run Xcode, Apple's integrated development environment (IDE) for iOS development. Xcode is used for writing code, designing user interfaces, and testing apps. Some courses may also recommend additional tools or libraries depending on the course content.

The duration of an iOS development course can vary widely. Shorter courses or bootcamps might last a few weeks to a couple of months, while more comprehensive courses or degree programs may take several months to a year or more. The time required also depends on the course’s intensity and your own learning pace.

Most introductory courses do not require prerequisites beyond a basic understanding of computer use. Advanced courses might assume some familiarity with programming concepts, or require you to complete foundational coursework first.

Many iOS development courses offer certificates upon completion, which can be useful for showcasing your skills to potential employers. Some courses, particularly those from accredited institutions, may provide diplomas or degrees.
