Advanced iOS Development Training Course

The objective of cross-platform frameworks is to enable developers to write applications once and deploy them on multiple platforms. Whether you need to build an iPhone app that will also run on Android or have a requirement for an Android app to function on Windows Phone, these frameworks provide the necessary tools and support.

This three-day course on PhoneGap/Apache Cordova is designed to explore two different yet complementary technologies for cross-platform mobile development. (Apache Cordova was formerly known as PhoneGap. Adobe acquired PhoneGap from its original developers and donated it to the Apache Software Foundation.)

Upon completion of this PhoneGap/Apache Cordova course, participants will be equipped to build fully-functional mobile Web applications using the framework, manage source code effectively, handle platform-specific adjustments, create “native-like” user experiences from a web application, and much more. This training is tailored for government professionals who need robust solutions for government workflows and governance.

This 5-day course is designed for government developers who wish to learn how to develop applications for iPhone and iPad running iOS8. The course is hands-on and demonstrates how to develop applications from scratch using Apple's new Swift programming language with the Xcode6 IDE. During the course, participants will build a fully functional Tetris-style block game from scratch using Swift. The course concludes with the development of a new application in Swift. Some programming experience is required for this course.

This course can only be conducted on Intel-based Apple hardware such as a MacBook or Mac Mini. Participants must have registered with Apple and possess an Apple ID, which is necessary to download the required software. Those wishing to run the applications developed during the course on an iPhone or iPad need to be registered as iOS developers with Apple and have their device registered for development. Apple charges $99 per year to register as an iOS developer for government use.

• Implement data persistence using Core Data and UserDefaults to ensure reliable data management for government applications.
• Write unit and UI tests using XCTest and XCUITest to maintain high standards of quality assurance for government software.
• Integrate APIs and apply performance optimization techniques to enhance the efficiency and responsiveness of government services.

This instructor-led, live training in US Empire (online or onsite) is aimed at beginner-level developers who wish to develop interactive iOS applications using Swift and Xcode for government projects.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to:

• Comprehend the fundamental architecture of iOS applications.
• Create simple user interfaces with UIKit and Storyboards.
• Manage user interactions and basic navigation between views.
• Progressively build a functional application throughout the course.

This course provides all the essential skills and knowledge necessary for creating your first iPhone or iPad application using the latest iOS SDK and development tools, tailored specifically for government professionals. It is designed to align with public sector workflows and governance requirements, ensuring that participants are well-equipped to develop applications that meet the highest standards of accountability and functionality for government use.

This 5-day course is designed for developers who want to learn how to develop applications for iPhone and iPad running iOS 11. Xcode 9, Swift 4, and iOS 11 introduced significant changes in the way applications are written, particularly relevant for government projects.

The course is hands-on and demonstrates how to develop applications from scratch using the Swift programming language and the Xcode 9 IDE. It emphasizes practical skills that can be directly applied to public sector workflows and governance.

During the course, a fully functional application will be developed from scratch using Swift, providing delegates with real-world experience that aligns with the technical requirements for government.

This course can only be run on Intel-based Apple hardware such as a MacBook or Mac Mini. Delegates need to have registered with Apple and possess an Apple ID, which is required to download software. Delegates wishing to run the applications developed during the course on an iPhone or iPad using a USB cable will need to register their device with Xcode.

Kotlin is a modern programming language that combines functional and object-oriented features, built on the Java platform.

In this instructor-led, live training, participants will learn Kotlin programming as they step through the creation of an Android and iOS application using Kotlin.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to:

• Understand the fundamentals of Kotlin programming
• Develop their own Kotlin applications
• Build, test, deploy, and troubleshoot Android and iOS apps using Kotlin

Audience

• Software developers

Format of the course

• Part lecture, part discussion, with exercises and extensive hands-on practice

Note

• To request a customized training for government or other specific needs, please contact us to arrange.

In this instructor-led, live training, participants will learn how to utilize the iOS Machine Learning (ML) technology stack as they proceed through the development and deployment of an iOS mobile application.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to:

• Create a mobile app with capabilities for image processing, text analysis, and speech recognition
• Access pre-trained ML models for integration into iOS applications
• Develop a custom ML model
• Incorporate Siri Voice support into iOS apps
• Understand and utilize frameworks such as CoreML, Vision, CoreGraphics, and GameplayKit
• Leverage languages and tools such as Python, Keras, Caffe, TensorFlow, Sci-Kit Learn, Libsvm, Anaconda, and Spyder

Audience

• Developers for government

Format of the Course

• Part lecture, part discussion, exercises, and extensive hands-on practice
