There's a plethora of SwiftUI how-to videos and sites, the bulk of which are incomplete, wrong, or poorly made presenting half-baked solutions. Brian's videos are thorough with a great amount of knowledge shared. Thanks Brian!
Great tutorial thank you! I'd love to see an advanced tutorial on core data where you deal with many-to-many relationships, update data and query only a subset of items from the core data.
Very good tutorial and I like the way you use this extension for the FetchRequest 👍🏼 One question though, I did some trainings on Core Data and on fetching and decoding JSON data now but I love to see an tutorial on fetching JSON and storing it in Core Data (preverably with more then one entity with a relation). Do you have such a tutorial or plan to make one in the near future? In any case, thanks again man! Very clear tutorial
Please, I have looked everywhere on how to properly change NavigationView/List background Color in SwiftUI, Thanks to Brain for another wonderful tutorial.
Excellent video, a very well done tutorial. Had to pause a few times to let stuff sink in, but that’s my brains limitation, not a fault of yours :). SwiftUI looks to be pretty powerful, and the more I learn about core data the more I like it.
Cool stuff. Thanks Brian. I think I understood how to add and delete an item. But how to modify an item, e.g. in the same view which I use for adding items? I cannot realize a cancel button to abort the modifications I already typed into the field. Any help for me? Rgds, Martin
Thx for this amazing tutorial. Would Love to See an App which is communicating with the Apple Watch, maybe as an Extension on this App. Keep up the good work.
This is really cool. U r so brilliant. I think this is the big help to know about CoreData and SwiftUI. I appreciate it. Ive been waiting to watch ur brand new tutorials. 🤗🤗🤗
How would you implement the EditButton() for a UITableViewController? I can't find any documentation on that, so if you could help out it would be really apprecited! Keep up the great videos
Great stuff!! I like it and helped me a lot to get a quick understanding. Is the preview crash fixed (after adding the fetch request)? Would be great to see it in the preview together with coredata!
Hey Brian, thanks for this video. This tutorial is crazy useful. But I need some help. In my use case, I have to put the TextField below the ForEach (Just switch the places of TextField and ForEach). Now, whenever we add a new ToDo item, the TextField goes down (Just like Apple’s Reminders app). If the app has many toDo items, the keyboard covers the TextField when the keyboard appears and we can’t see the TextField. What I want to know is how to automatically scroll the List ( move the view up) to see the TextField when keyboard appears. Please help me. Thanks for reading my long comment. Have a great day.
I don't have the same file system you do, so it is impossible to proceed. I think it is good idea to mention which Xcode Version you using. I am using Xcode version 12.4.
@@praetoriancze Update** Watching the video a fourth time I noticed I'm using an updated version of Xcode 11.3.1, and it adds extra code in the SceneDelegate.swift. I'm still researching what effect this would have on the code** I've run into the same issue, I haven't been able to find the solution yet unfortunately :(
Awesome video, short and to the point -- thank you! One question: Is there a particular reason why you embeded the VStack of the title and createdAt Texts for the ToDoItemView inside of a HStack?
22:47 This is a Great tutorial and if u had the same problem as me here I found the solution The problem was that my ForEach was working and display as many rows as elements in my CoreData Model, but each label was set with the first element.name . So the values were there but the loop didn't iterate properly. The solution is that in the example above, you need to change "ForEach(self.toDoItems)" to " ForEach(self.toDoItems, id: \.self)". IIwasn't required at the time the video was recorded or it might be that my structure requires it. Nevertheless this tutorial is still one of the most complete on the topic and if you found my same problem, hope my comment can help you! much love people
You had me... until you wrote that "ToDoItem" function, Jesus. Things like that intimidate me and make me question if I'm even smart enough for this. Either way, great video and everything was definitely well explained - I just need to learn a little more Swift / Xcode before biting off more than I can chew I think, lol.
Hey Karsen, you are definitely smart enough and absolutely right. If you are a beginner, CoreData can be a little bit intimidating because of all the new terms and concepts that you need to deal with. But keep pushing and you’ll get that hang of it!
Strange. I get the error: Value of type 'NSManagedObject' has no member 'createdAt' Value of type 'NSManagedObject' has no member 'title' On the "ToDoItemView" line in the ForEach loop. Any ideas? The add button works, and the number of to-do's increases, but that one piece isn't working.
your tutorial is really great. I tried your To-Do List App with Core Data, it works very well. But then I tried to work with Core Data using the cloud kit. I just marked the Core Data in Cloud Check (creating the App). Now I have the problem the App will not work, because there is a crash in beginning the app. I get a signal SIGABRT in the second line of ContentView (the line with @FetchRequest(fetchRequest ...) Is there anything else to change to store the data in the cloud?
stackoverflow.com/questions/62676987/could-not-cast-value-of-type-swift-optionalswift-anyobject-to-nsfetchreques found this on stackoverflow. You have to add @objc(ToDoItem) above the class declaration of ToDoItem
Hi Brian, really appreciate the video. I'm not used to the view having direct access to a database service (context). Not sure what a good structure is for SwiftUI apps. I'm currently trying to use a MVVM structure.
Xcode 11.5 - it is not necessary to modify SceneDelegate.swift, context and contextView are defined. If you are bothering with the dysfunctional preview, see stackoverflow.com/questions/59514875/swiftui-coredata-crashes-preview . If you want to use the folding ability of Xcode: Menu - Editor - Code Folding - Fold, and there you also find the keyboard shortcuts Foremost, THX!
I will use it today. But I recommend to use it only if you don't need backwards compatibility and have fun fixing a lot of bugs and changes over the years. But useable is it right now (kind of you need to mix it with UIKit). If you don't want to use it today I think you should wait 1-2 years
Your tutorials a very good and I really appreciate them however it's really annoying that sometimes I got to pause the video and zoom the page so I could see what you are writing or choosing, would be really awesome if could sometimes zoom when writing code or in general just make it a bit more zoomed like you. Thx anyway :)
IDK why this is happening, but when I add a new task, unlike your video, the new row is being added upper the previous row, not beneath the last row. I have been keeping watching this video again and again what mistake I made, but still can't find it... Can someone drop me an idea or words that might be causing this error? Thanks;)
I try with: ForEach(users.filter { self.serchedText == "" ? true : $0.name.localizedCaseInsensitiveCompare(self.serchedText) }, id: \.self) { user in... but gives me an error
@@sermedix Unfortunately there are some UIKit elements that one will have to use in a SwiftUI project, but I'm sure the SwiftUI team is working hared on bringing us into the future, where all things will be made with SwiftUI magic 🧙♂️
Brian thank you for the video.One question why do you have to put .navigationBarTitle on the curly braces of the list instead of the last curly braces of the navigationview that's where makes more sense since the title is to be set to the navigation view and not the list? thank you
If you want to change an item in the ToDoItemView (lets say the title), it is not reflected in the UI. Even though it is stored in CoreData. You have to somehow bind the toDoItem in order to see the changes. How would you do that?
hey brain, thank you for your tutorial its substantially helpful. i have a problem here with the app, so it keeps crashing for this reason" could not cast value of type 'Swift.Optional' (0x7fff89e42578) to 'NSFetchRequest' (0x7fff89e42618)". i tried to lookup solution or updates but couldnt find any! help me please.
Hi Brian, thanks for your amazing tutorials! I used your video(s) as a guide to set up a very basic watchOS 6 application with Core Data support. However, I ran into very weird issues, like I'm unable to set the managedObjectContext once at the ContentView level (inside ExtensionDelegate), and then use it later on in sub views (Context in environment is not connected to a persistent store coordinator). Would highly appreciate any advice. Thanks!
I got that error yesterday after implementing an environment object to my view. the way I fixed it was passing an environment object to the preview. Maybe if you pass a nsmanagedobject the canvas will work..?
Hi Brian, Thank you for the tutorial. I was wondering if you could update your "Complex SwiftUI" tutorial for Xcode beta 5. It became broken in beta 3. I have been trying to fix it for the last few weeks but I am new to this and I can't figure it out.
As I was building this by myself, I encountered a problem. With Core Data, everything works fine. But how can I add a WebRequest with the URL Session to this project? Maybe you could help me archieve this withhin the already existing "FetchedResults" and "Fetchrequest". Best regards
In creating the ToDoItem.swift file, I get plenty of errors stating that it is a redeclaration of the class. I found that adding the data model to core data, it creates this class with this name. So I guess we dont need to do that? Only thing is, I can't create the extension. not sure why. If I comment out the class and just add the extension, I get the message that I am using an ambiguous use of fetchRequest().. UGH If I dont, however, use the same entity name, all seems OK..
Hi Brian, great video by the way. I have a question. I am creating an app that can save passwords, but I don’t want to use Firebase. what it does it saves the passwords on the iPhone. Would Apple allow this? Thanks, Amez

For a user wanting an actual tutorial to understand and not just be shown, this video falls short.
