What you'll learn

Facing challenges with tightly coupled components and inflexible architecture in your Swift applications? In this course, Structural Design Patterns in Swift 5, you’ll learn to develop flexible, scalable, and maintainable Swift applications. First, you’ll explore the Adapter and Bridge patterns, which allow for enhanced flexibility in your codebase by enabling unrelated interfaces to work together and decoupling an abstraction from its implementation, respectively. Next, you’ll discover the Composite and Decorator patterns, empowering you to treat individual objects and compositions uniformly and to dynamically add responsibilities to objects without modifying their code. Finally, you’ll learn how to apply the Facade, Flyweight, and Proxy patterns to simplify complex systems with a single interface, efficiently manage resource-intensive objects, and control access to instances, enhancing security and functionality. When you’re finished with this course, you’ll have the skills and knowledge of structural design patterns needed to design your Swift applications for ease of maintenance and future enhancements.
