Outdated?

I've followed the steps in order to add the pod and edited the file and insert "pod 'SimpleAuth/FoursquareWeb' " into the file itself. After hitting pod install I get "Pod installation complete! There is 1 dependency from the Podfile and 6 total pods installed." However I also get yellow text mentioning that;

[!] The dPicDid [Debug] target overrides the ALWAYS_EMBED_SWIFT_STANDARD_LIBRARIES build setting defined in Pods/Target Support Files/Pods-dPicDid/Pods-dPicDid.debug.xcconfig'. This can lead to problems with the CocoaPods installation - Use the$(inherited)` flag, or - Remove the build settings from the target.

[!] The dPicDid [Release] target overrides the ALWAYS_EMBED_SWIFT_STANDARD_LIBRARIES build setting defined in Pods/Target Support Files/Pods-dPicDid/Pods-dPicDid.release.xcconfig'. This can lead to problems with the CocoaPods installation - Use the$(inherited)` flag, or - Remove the build settings from the target.

After trying to open the new workspace I get a prompt telling me that I need to convert to current swift syntax. Once I try convert I have 120 build errors, if I don't I have 98 build time errors?

Not quite sure where to go from here, I've been seeking answers on StackoverFlow with no help. Not a lot of solutions on google either as not many examples use foursquare API.

Yes, the video is outdated (technology is constantly evolving).

Did you have a look at this question posted regrading the video?

Amit does provide some instruction on how to make compatible with Xcode 8. As he also stated, they are working on creating an updated course for this. I have found that sometimes you just can't follow along because of technological changes (and Swift 3 is a pretty big one). Sometimes, it's just best to watch the old videos and take notes to learn the structures, and then when the newer courses come out, you'll be one step ahead.

Good luck. :) :dizzy:
