When the Swift Language was introduced back in 2014, it came with a promise to be a safe, fast and expressive language. With a syntax tuned to make it easy to express intent and that is a joy to use the code sometimes resembles a sentence in English.

The features of the language made easier what educators around the world have struggled with for so long doing: teaching how to code to people without any background in computer sciences.

This session will share what we have learned in recent years of introducing programming and application development concepts to people with diverse academic backgrounds using the Swift programming language.

It will also cover how the latest declarative framework SwiftUI bridges the gap between interface design and development by introducing resources that enable anyone to create interactive experiences without having to master complex computer science concepts.
