The app includes Apple-developed programming lessons, puzzles
and challenges that teach core coding concepts, as well as built-in
templates to encourage users to express their creativity and create
real programs. And it takes full advantage of the power, simplicity
and Multi-Touch™ capabilities of iPad to deliver a
first-of-its-kind learning experience. All programming lessons are
now localized across five additional languages and are optimized to
look even better and run faster than ever.
“The Swift Playgrounds app has helped people of all ages learn
the basics of coding, and with more than a million downloads to
date, customers and students find it an easy and fun way to get
started with Swift,” said Tim Cook, Apple’s CEO. “Hundreds of
thousands of iPhone and iPad apps, including some of the most
popular in the App Store, use Swift — a programming language we
designed to be both powerful and easy for anyone to learn.”
“Swift Playgrounds is the perfect app to help our students learn
to code, and I’m very excited students in China are now are able to
use it with Simplified Chinese support,” said Xiaoming Bao,
Hangzhou Foreign Languages School. “Last year, we created an
optional coding class for my students to learn fundamental coding
concepts using Swift Playgrounds. I had no previous experience with
coding, but the engaging and easy-to-learn app, along with the
comprehensive teacher guide developed by Apple, made me confident
that I could inspire and facilitate my students to learn to code,
and understand coding as a way of thinking that can be applied to
other subjects and everyday life. Chinese language support will
make the learning experience with Swift Playgrounds even easier for
students.”
