iOS AutoLayout

Can you guys make an elaborated video on AUTO LAYOUT for X code 6!!!

This is making me sick!!!!

I watched the swift app videos but its still kinda hard to grasp what auto layout really wants.

I was trying to make some of my own apps and iphone 6 and 6 plus and 4s giving me a very hard time.

If I can somehow fix it for 4s display it gets messed in iphone 6 and vice versa.

I think having clear knowledge on AUTO LAYOUT is very important for an iOS developer.

Please help me out.

Have you gone through these tutorials online?

http://www.raywenderlich.com/83129/beginning-auto-layout-tutorial-swift-part-1

Some of the exercises on Ray's site are a great complement to what you can find here. I am also looking for more lessons here but in the mean time, there are some other great resources out there too.

Hope that helps,

Mike

adnanalvee2,

Yes we definitely need to. Would a course like this be something you want to learn in the context of building an app, or strictly auto layout from start to finish?

May be inside an app building course but a chapter dedicated to it demonstrating everything we need to know and how it works and when it gets messed up. What to do or not to do. You can make it in such a way that you can even separate it out as a short course for people who just wants to learn auto layout.

Thanks.

Yeah the issue is that everything you need to know for Auto Layout is too big a topic to cover in one course since we would have to build a fairly complex app. My plan has been to progressively introduce Auto Layout in each course we cover so that you can practice concepts multiple times and you experience it in the context of multiple apps.

I think that plus a dedicated Auto Layout course would be perfect
