This fall, Apple will release iOS 11, an update the company claims, “sets a new standard for what is already the world’s most advanced mobile operating system.” In other words: #humblebrag. 

Whether or not the statement will hold true remains to be seen, but there is no doubt that Apple’s latest will provide coding nerds with a host of new toys to play with, plus new ways to make major cash. iOS 11’s new file infrastructure, multitasking features, and robust customization options bring the mobile operating system one step closer to rivaling the experience of Apple’s desktops.

New additions like a smarter Siri, Apple's Venmo (via text), and VR support provide exciting new avenues for gifted developers to get coding. For anyone considering a career in iOS development, now is a great time to get started.

But in order to get your skills up to snuff and get your foot in the door in the tech industry, you’re going to need some top-notch instruction. Luckily, you won’t have to get into an Ive League school to find it.

The Complete iOS 11 & Swift Developer Course will teach you how to use the newest releases and speak Apple’s signature programming language, and it won’t rack up any student loans. You can enroll in this expert-led program now and be on your way to a successful app dev career for just $19.

The Complete iOS 11 & Swift Developer Course is taught by Rob Percival, a veteran of online training who's been heralded by Business Insider as an “elite instructor.” He's pretty much an online learning celebrity in some circles. Percival is beloved by his students (340,000 strong) because his courses are fun, easy to follow, and packed with a ton of truly valuable takeaways.

Over the course of 249 lectures and 34 hours of content, this course will give you a complete toolkit for designing your own apps with Swift 4, ARKit, MLKit, MusicKit, and the new Depth Photo API. You’ll also explore XCode and Interface Builder, build games with SpriteKit, and create Snapchat and Instagram clones. All told you’ll finish this course with 20 fresh app builds under your belt — a great start to any developer’s portfolio.

This all-star course normally sells for $200, but you can get it here for just $15.
