Appendix

Reference material that didn’t fit cleanly into a phase but you’ll want at hand. Skim once, then return when you need it.

Contents

• Swift version matrix — which Swift, Xcode, and OS versions ship together; what each Swift release added
• Xcode keyboard shortcuts — the shortcuts senior engineers actually use, grouped by workflow
• Interview cheat sheet — condensed top 50 Q&A across the book, for the night before
• Deployment checklist — every gate between “feature complete” and “live on the App Store”
• Security checklist — OWASP Mobile Top 10 mapped to iOS, with the actual mitigation for each
• Glossary — every acronym and term used in the book
• Career launch playbook — the 60-day plan from finishing this book to signed offer

How to use the appendix

These pages are reference material, not chapters. You don’t read them linearly. You jump in when:

• You’re about to start an interview tomorrow → Interview cheat sheet
• You’re about to submit an app to Review → Deployment checklist
• You’re about to start a security review → Security checklist
• You’re confused by an acronym → Glossary
• You want to know “what’s in Swift 6” without re-reading Phase 1 → Swift version matrix
• You’re 60 days from being ready and need a plan → Career launch playbook

End of book. You’ve earned the title.
