- [Instructor] Since this course was designed with the advanced developer in mind, you'll need to have prior experience with a few things before we get rolling. First off, you'll need a solid grasp of programming fundamentals both in general and in the iOS landscape since we won't be spending time on these topics at all. If you need a refresher before starting or at any time throughout the course, check out Programming Foundations Fundamentals from our course library. Second, a good foundational knowledge of Swift and the Xcode Editor is a must. We'll only be going into specifics for these two topics as they relate to using the Core Animation framework. Our Swift 4 and Xcode 9 Essential Training courses are great if you need to shake off the rust. Lastly, I'd highly recommend being comfortable with iOS animations with UIKit and some basic coordinate math. While experience with UIKit isn't a hard prerequisite, it'll definitely help you get a more comprehensive grip on what we'll be doing with Core Animation. You can run through my other course Learning iOS Animations with UIKit for any catch up you might need. I recorded this course with Swift 4.1 and Xcode 9.4 so be sure to have your system updated to at least these requirements. If you're feeling good about having all this under your belt, let's take a look at the exercise files and the starter project I prepared for the course.
