What, perhaps, attracts so many users to this comprehensive course is the holistic approach it takes to help you learn about Rest API, Swift, Kitura, and Bluemix. While many courses delve too deep into the theory of API development, this API tutorial takes a balanced approach to things. This course gives you sufficient theoretical knowledge and a thorough hands-on learning experience. Most professional developers will tell you that the best way to learn any sort of coding is diving heads on into it. That is just what this course does! Check it out!
Why should you take this API tutorial for beginners?
All developers now it can be a real pain having to learn different languages for front-end and back-end development. Swift solves this problem by being a powerful resource for both front and back-end development. Adding Kitura to the mix and learning it alongside Swift is almost a cheat code if you want to take your API development skills to the next level.
By learning both:
- You’ll be able to build APIs that support all platforms (Firebase only supports iOS/Android meanwhile Swift and Kitura support those alongside tvOS and macOS)
- You get to become a full-stack developer without learning many programming languages
- You’ll have an edge in the jobs you’re interviewed for
- You’ll be able to engage in API development and manage databases for your applications
- You learn back-end faster than learning on Node, Rails or PHP
