01
Native still matters
Web wrappers and React Native are fine for some things. App Store features, deep notifications, App Clips, widgets, intent extensions. Native opens doors web-wrapped apps cannot reach.
Pre-recorded masterclass · 90 min
Build a real iOS app. Without being an iOS dev.
Ninety minutes. Xcode, SwiftUI, Claude Code, TestFlight, App Store. The exact workflow we use to ship native iOS apps when nobody on the team writes Swift by hand.

“the ideas can be applied immediately.”
“I am building things I never would have considered before making the investment in their products and classes.”
“operate more strategically, improve efficiency”
The premise
Native iOS is finally within reach.
02
Swift was the wall
Until Claude Code, learning Swift and SwiftUI was a months-long bet before you saw a working app. The wall is gone. The build pipeline is the same. The skill required to drive it is not.
03
Xcode is still Xcode
The IDE will not adapt to you. The class shows you how to bend Xcode to a Claude Code workflow instead of fighting it, including build commands, schemes, signing, and TestFlight.
04
Shipping is the lesson
Most iOS tutorials stop at the simulator. We walk through the signing dance, the App Store Connect ritual, and the real submission. You leave with a real app, in TestFlight, ready for review.

Chapter 01
Xcode for an AI workflow
Schemes, build settings, what to ignore.

SwiftUI cold start
First view, navigation, state, the Apple way.
Chapter 04
Auth + onboarding
Sign in With Apple, three-screen pattern.

Persistence + sync
SwiftData locally, Convex on the backend.
Chapter 06
Push notifications
APNs, capabilities, a working test push.
Chapter 07
Signing + provisioning
The dance, demystified.
Chapter 08
TestFlight + App Store
Connect setup, builds, submission.
Chapter 09
Ship
Real app, real review queue, on camera.
What you build
One full app. Submitted on camera.
Not a toy view. A real SwiftUI app with auth, persistence, notifications, and a finished icon. From an empty Xcode project to a TestFlight build in 90 minutes.
- Auth + onboarding. Sign in With Apple, a proper onboarding flow, and the first three screens that every iOS app needs.
- Data + notifications. SwiftData for local persistence, sync to a Convex backend, and a working push notification.
- Polish + ship. App icon, launch screen, Privacy Manifest, App Store Connect setup, TestFlight build, and the submission.

Questions
Before you join.
Is this live or recorded?
Pre-recorded and on demand. Watch when you want, re-watch when you need. Lifetime replay.
Do I need a Mac?
Yes. Xcode is Mac only. Any Apple Silicon Mac from the last few years runs Xcode comfortably. Older Intel Macs can work but expect slow builds.
Do I need a paid Apple Developer account?
You can follow the entire class with a free Apple ID and run on the simulator. To put a build on a real device, use TestFlight, or submit to the App Store, you need the $99 per year Apple Developer Program membership. We cover what triggers the need.
Do I need to know Swift?
No. You should be comfortable reading code in general. Claude Code generates the Swift. The class teaches you what to read, what to verify, and what to never blindly accept.
Will the app actually pass review?
The walkthrough produces a real submission. The class covers the most common rejection reasons (privacy strings, IDFA, broken features) and how to avoid them. Apple reserves the right to reject anything, but the patterns we use are the patterns that pass.
What if Apple changes something in six months?
Lifetime access includes updates. If a major SDK shift happens, the relevant sections are re-recorded and the starter project is updated.
