Level Up Your SwiftUI Skills with Two Essential Books
Hey fellow iOS developers! I'm excited to share something special with you today. After months of hard work, I've completed two comprehensive books that tackle some of the most important aspects of modern SwiftUI development: building robust design systems and creating truly accessible applications.
The Books
1. Crafting Consistency: Building a Complete App Design System with SwiftUI
This first book is your complete guide to transforming pixel-perfect Figma designs into a rock-solid, scalable SwiftUI design system. We'll walk through every stage of the process:
- Setting up your Xcode project with proper organization
- Defining core design tokens (colors, typography, spacing)
- Building reusable, themeable components
- Organizing your codebase for maximum maintainability
You'll discover best practices for automating builds with CI/CD pipelines, integrating snapshot tests to catch visual regressions early, and streamlining collaboration between designers and developers.
By the end of this book, you'll be able to ship consistent, high-quality interfaces faster and evolve your app with confidence.
2. SwiftUI and Accessibility: Creating Inclusive iOS Applications
My second book focuses on building truly inclusive SwiftUI apps that welcome every user, regardless of their abilities. You'll master:
- Dynamic font sizing implementation
- Color-contrast best practices
- VoiceOver integration techniques
- Comprehensive accessibility auditing with Xcode's tools
Learn to implement adaptable layouts that respect user-preferred text sizes and themes, craft clear labels and hints for seamless VoiceOver navigation, and enforce accessibility standards from design through deployment.
Packed with practical examples and expert tips, this guide will help you boost user satisfaction, expand your audience, and elevate your reputation by delivering apps that are not only beautiful but genuinely usable by everyone.
Special Offer: Get Both Books for the Price of One!
Here's the exciting part: When you purchase Crafting Consistency: Building a Complete App Design System with SwiftUI, you'll get SwiftUI and Accessibility: Creating Inclusive iOS Applications completely free!
Why am I doing this? Because I believe these two topics go hand-in-hand. A truly great design system isn't just about visual consistency—it's about creating components that are inherently accessible and adaptable to all users.
What You'll Learn Across Both Books
Together, these books cover:
- 18 chapters on design system creation, from foundation to implementation
- 5 chapters on accessibility best practices and techniques
- Practical, real-world examples you can apply immediately
- Code samples that build on each other to create complete solutions
- Best practices from years of professional iOS development experience
