Build an iOS Soundboard!

At this meetup, Alex Hudson will show you how to build an iOS soundboard. You’ll do the following:

• Incorporate commonly used SwiftUI views
• Import sound files into an Xcode project
• Create a grid in SwiftUI
• Create simple unit tests to practice good coding standards

Are you new to iOS development, the Swift programming language, Xcode, SwiftUI, or any combination of these? This meetup session is just for you! You’ll come to the meetup with your Mac with Xcode installed, and you’ll leave with at least one working app, if not two or more.

This meetup will be a “code along with the presenter” exercise. You’ll fire up Xcode, click File → New, and following the presenter’s work on the big screen, you’ll write code in Swift, build a user interface in SwiftUI, and compile and run the app. If you’ve never built an iOS app before — or it’s been a while — you’ll want to attend this meetup!

You’ll need:

• A Mac computer — preferably a laptop, but we’ve had people bring in Mac desktops before. Swift Playgrounds on the iPad might also work.
• Xcode (version 14). It’s free on the App Store, but it does take a while to download and install. It’s best if you install it in advance.

And because it’s hard to code on an empty stomach, we’ll provide the pizza, courtesy of our sponsor: Okta! We’d also like to thank Computer Coach for the generous use of their space.
