Interested in experimenting with Xcode and Swift?

Command Swift is a monthly workshop series focused on experimenting with the capabilities of Xcode and the Swift programming language.

Whether you're a development fledgling or code virtuoso, everyone has something they can teach: one learner each month will be asked to teach one skill (like implementing the Google Maps SDK via Swift, building a useable prototype quickly, or using tools like Parse to make a simple chat app -- whatever you have an interest in) the following month to the rest of the group.

This way, each student becomes an expert in one thing, and the group as a whole benefits from the diversity of everyone's knowledge; the Student is the Master.

Our prototype edition of Command Swift will be held on October 7, 19:30 at Tacchi Studios. If you're interested to join, check out our Facebook group here:

Can't wait for this, Johnny! It's great that you're setting this up. Should be super valuable for anyone looking to get into iOS (or tvOS) dev! 😄

Hey everyone! Just wanted to thank all of you who managed to make out for Command Swift 0 - the prototype!

It was a blast, and in the end we all managed to get our maps to show up -- woohoo!

Next month is bound to be just as fun, and once again, we'll work and experiment together to do something cool in Swift/Xcode!

Thanks Johnny for hosting! It was great to hang out and learn with everyone!

If anyone else is thinking about running a similar event and needs somewhere to host it, please don't hesitate to get in touch with me! We're always looking for ways to help the community in Tokyo!

P.S. I wrote a quick post on our blog at http://tacchistudios.com/blog/2015/10/08/event-report-command-swift-0-the-prototype/
