The prerequisites for this course would include the Swift Track and probably some familiarity with Xcode.

If a course has prerequisite courses, you should complete the prerequisite courses before taking the course. Those prerequisite courses will teach you concepts that you need to know in order to fully understand the material.

The point is that though the teacher says at the start of the course that we should have "completed the pre requisites that are mentioned in the teachers section" there are no pre requisites mentioned. I've seen this missing on many of the courses given by Pasan actually maybe some one can get a reminder to him to add them. Many thanks

I think this is a good question. If a course has prerequisites (and I think I have seen them on other courses), it should be distinguished on the course. I cannot see, by looking at the course, what the prerequisites are, which there are some, ... so basically, the video is telling the user to look at nothing. Nothing is there, but there should be something.

Hello, OK, but where can I find that prerequisite courses list? I can't see it anywhere.
