Course content
What the two-hour class covers
Follow a real app from idea to launch: what to do at each step, how AI helps and where mistakes often happen.
1
Find an idea worth building
Choosing what to build is often the first obstacle. Find opportunities, then validate them quickly with AI.
- Discover needs from work, life and payment habits
- Observe App Store rankings, reviews, community and Xiaohongshu feedback
- Organize vague ideas into developable and chargeable directions
2
Design a polished iOS interface
Make interfaces that don’t look like templates with Apple-style hierarchies, components, and visual assets.
- Home page, settings page, payment page, empty state and loading state
- Let AI generate design drafts, copywriting and interface code
- iOS/macOS Logo Basic Specifications
3
Build data and core features
Use SwiftData and iCloud to connect local data, sync and the app experience.
- Local data models, history and favorites
- What scenarios is iCloud synchronization suitable for?
- When do I need to connect to Supabase or build my own backend?
4
Subscriptions and monetization
Understand the core transaction path of commercialized apps and do not circumvent Apple rules.
- Subscription, non-consumable, one-time buyout options
- StoreKit 2 purchases, restoration and entitlement checks
- Free quota, Pro benefits and paid page design
5
Accounts, builds, review and testing
Take a working app to a user-ready release. Prepare the account first and aim to pass the first review.
- Business D-U-N-S registration before release
- Xcode automated build and TestFlight internal testing
- App review, registration requirements in China and international launch
6
After launch: growth and localization
Organize and scale your app for ongoing improvement from day one.
- Use GitHub to manage project code
- Multi-language adaptation goes global
- Apply for WWDC live tickets and iOS learning resources
7
Guest session: WWDC and iOS 27Unlocked at 12 registrations
At 12 registrations, an extra one-hour guest session is added. An iOS designer shares observations from WWDC and how iOS 27 affects app design and product opportunities.
- What are the signals at WWDC that product people should pay attention to?
- How to understand the new interactions, new visuals and system capabilities of iOS 27
- Which app directions can independent developers plan in advance?
