Curious about this myself. I recently begun learning Objective C past 2-3 week and am curious whether to abandon ship and move over to swift.
However I think that most Objective C learning material is still a good precursor for learning iOS in general and learning the structure of iOS apps.
Looking forward to hearing other answers.
- lyinsteve 12y agoSwift is built with Objective-C interoperability in mind. All of the Objective-C Foundation classes are available in Swift, and they've done their best to mitigate the differences in software design. However, learning Swift without first learning how the underlying Objective-C libraries work, the design patterns, the available functions, Swift-Objective-C-Interop is going to be very difficult. I'd recommend learning Swift and Objective-C at the same time. If you learn how to do something in Swift, learn how to do it in Objective-C. Objective-C isn't going anywhere, any time soon.
