It\u2019s that simple.  I like to take classes, learn new things, read about new things, and play with new things.  It\u2019s one of the reasons I think I like being in technology, there are always new things to learn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Early last year I decided to start the class 100 Day of Swift from the website <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/hackingwithswift.com\" target=\"_blank\">HackingWithSwift<\/a>. Paul Hudson &#8211; AKA TwoStraws, does a fantastic job of providing daily lessons for 100 Days, along with challenges and exams, to help you get a good understanding about Swift in general.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While the class was fun, I really wanted to improve my skills in SwiftUI, so I took a break and then begin the class 100 Days of SwiftUI.  Of course, you don\u2019t need to take the first class, as this one does a great job of getting you familiar with many of the same Swift concepts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I finally completed the 100 Days of SwiftUI early this year.  Mainly because I had too many day job interruptions, and personal issues come up while taking the class. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I do feel that I have a much better understanding of Swift now, but there is still so much to learn.  If I were able to spend 1-2 hours a day on iOS and Swift, I would be in a much better place with the language, but as I don\u2019t use this in my day to day work, I just get to dabble with it when I have time, I will have to continue to move along at a slower pace than I\u2019d like.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I like learning.
