Hi there,

I am an app developer, who had excellent coders, but COVID through my family and me into a "LOOP". I want to learn the Build interfaces for applications without writing code using Interface Builder, an editor within Xcode.

I am bootstrapped and want to be a programmer again for two reasons. I have three apps that need to be updated for the iPad iTunes Store. I want to learn Xcode and IOS for two reasons: One, two sell my apps again, which are great, to help sustain my nearby retirement years, and Two, to prevent dementia or Alzheimer's.

You see, Mom is in her 80s, and it's been tough for us 1980 college graduates to see her go through this. I want to prevent it for me by learning to code again and be able to take care of her with a stay-home job of tutoring and programming, sorry coding—Google MontessoriTech for the iPads.

I need a website, too, because WIX took my site down during COVID.

Send me good advice. Kindness goes a long way, and I'll send you advice on how you can take care of your parents now or when you are my age.

Love, Mrs. Grace Kochanik

Hi,

You posted this under the tag "Interface Builder", but I'll answer in general and provide also links to SwiftUI. Using it you could perhaps be able to implement what you wish to, and perhaps a bit easier. Maybe others can provide more relevant pointers to Interface Builder specific things.

You'll find a good tutorial right here at the Apple Developer site: https://developer.apple.com/tutorials/swiftui

Check these too:

Also, you want to check out many good persons offering hints and tips on programming at YouTube, for example Paul Hudson, Sean Allen, Stewart *****, Tundsdev, Mikaela Caron, Karin Prater, Mark Moeykens, etc. I'm sure others may provide other good sources for learning. At least Paul and Mark also write excellent books on the topic, surely also the others but these I know myself.

Furthermore, you'll find many open source projects at GitHub where you can start learning and including those in your future apps.

Good luck and perseverance in your learning path!
