Will my newly acquired Swift skills be able to be applied in this course?

Will my newly acquired Swift skills be able to be applied in this course? I have an understanding of ObjC but was hoping to take advantage of Swift

From what I can tell is they don't have much content on swift unfortunately. I am hoping they start adding a lot more iOS swift development tracks soon or I believe I will be getting rid of my subscription.

Colton Ballinger, How about instead of moaning about not having enough Swift material, why don't you just translate their Obj-C courses to Swift, it's great practice in learning both languages. Also don't just rely on TreeHouse to teach you Swift because you will get nowhere. You need to research a lot more about things you don't understand.

While you are waiting for new Swift courses to come out, why not do the HTML and CSS course to be able to create a landing page for your app, something Apple requires when submitting an app to the appstore.

Thanks, Alex

I believe you could follow this course, but you would have to rethink some aspects of code you write to make use of all the cool stuff Swift offers against Objective-C.

There is a course Objective-C for Swift Developers (https://teamtreehouse.com/library/objectivec-for-swift-developers-2). You would have to take that course first if you get stuck with this one.
