Description
Hi, My name is Amos Gyamfi. I have been using SwiftUI to create animations and prototypes since its very first release in 2019. I am so excited to teach you how to get started, prototype and, build your next iOS, tvOS, iPadOS, and watchOS App animations using SwiftUI.

Welcome to SwiftUI Animation Foundations: Fundamentals. This course gives you the good foundations and the basic principles of animating anything you could imagine using SwiftUI. We will first go through how things change over time so that you know for example, how things move. We will then look at creating Basic Animation as well as Spring Animation. You will learn how to make your app animations look better, delightful, and useful using nothing but SwiftUI. So, let's get started with SwiftUI Animation Foundations: Fundamentals.
