Summary

We have just covered some initial ground.

You should now be able to create your projects and add several target platforms to them.

You have been given a brief introduction about using Xcode to create and modify a simple text view, and you should be able to preview, modify, and run your first very simple app with static text and a color background.

You have seen the basics of project creation; you know how to modify a project to add tests or support for another platform on your own.

You know the limits and advantages of Swift Playgrounds rather than previews and can solve the most common Xcode problems you face as a SwiftUI beginner.

In the next chapter, we will explore SwiftUI views and their modifiers in greater detail, and we will create more complex screens.
