Tables, Data & Networking in iOS (Coursera)

Offered by LearnQuest,
Tables, Data & Networking in iOS (Coursera)

In this course you will learn how to work with data in iOS. Data is the key ingredient for any functional app and one must learn how to properly display it to the user. You will learn how to use tables and collection views to display data to users, and how to use Core Data to build more robust, data-driven applications.

Every app must have data. Making web requests is by far the most common thing you will do as an iOS developer. You will learn how to get your apps working with servers and external data. Throughout the course, you will create a ToDo app, including learning how to decode data from a web server as well as how to make POST requests.
Course 3 of 4 in the Swift 5 iOS Application Developer Specialization.
What You Will Learn

  • How to create memory-efficient tables and display data in a list
  • How to model data and create database relationships
  • How to persist and fetch data
  • How to use APIs and communicate with web servers

Syllabus

WEEK 1
Coder Swag App: Working With Tables
In this module you will learn the basics of working with data in iOS. Data is the key ingredient for any functional app and one must learn how to properly display it to the user. You will learn how to use tables and collection views to display data to users.

WEEK 2
Goal Post App: Working With Core Data
Having data to present in your app is important. But it can be equally important to know how to persist the data to your phone even after the app is closed. In this module you will learn how to use Core Data to build more robust, data-driven applications.

WEEK 3
ToDo App: Network Requests & APIs
You really don't have an app unless you have data. Making web requests is by far the most common thing you will do as an iOS developer. In this module you will learn how to get your apps working with servers and external data.

WEEK 4
Decoding, Async, & POST Requests
In this module you will finish the ToDo app by learning how to decode data from a web server as well as how to make POST requests.

VLSI CAD Part II: Layout (Coursera)

A modern VLSI chip is a remarkably complex beast: billions of transistors, millions of logic gates deployed for computation and control, big blocks of memory, embedded blocks of pre-designed functions designed by third parties (called “intellectual property” or IP blocks). How do people manage to design these complicated chips? Answer: a sequence of computer aided design (CAD) tools takes an abstract description of the chip, and refines it step-wise to a final design.
