Description

Apple introduced iOS 7 to the world in September 2013, and with it came the biggest visual refresh of the operating system since it was launched. However, not only did the UI get a complete revamp, many new frameworks, API and features were added for developers to take advantage of in their apps.

iOS 7: Day by Day takes a stroll through this new functionality from a developer perspective. Each chapter takes a look at a different feature, with code and a sample app to aid demonstration. The chapters are detailed enough to allow a reader to get up to speed on complex APIs, but are sufficiently short that they can be digested on a daily schedule.

The book covers all the major new frameworks – from CoreText to MultipeerConnectivity, and digs into lots of the hidden gems which developers are going to love.
