Advanced Programming in Swift

Meta extends Swift foundations into the organization and testing of a more involved application. Custom types and access control sit alongside higher-order functions and error handling. A dinner-menu project provides a context for connecting language features with search and filtering behavior.

What you will learn

• Define and organize advanced Swift data types.
• Use functional transformations on collections.
• Apply error handling and unit-testing concepts.

Who this suits

Learners with programming fundamentals in Swift and SwiftUI; completing Meta’s earlier courses is recommended.

Before you enroll

Check the Mac, macOS and Xcode requirements before enrolling. Swift and Apple-framework APIs change, so preview the software versions used in the exercises. Publishing an app and using some cloud services have requirements beyond completing the lessons.

Coursera offers paid enrollment or subscription access. Check the enrollment screen for assessment and certificate terms, trials and any financial-aid options. Provider access terms can change; review them before paying.

Put it into practice

Implement a fictional menu filter and add tests for an empty result, invalid input and a normal matching item.
