  • Introduction to AutoLayout
    • In this lesson, you will learn what problems AutoLayout solves and why you can't afford to ignore it any longer.
  • Using AutoLayout
    • In this lesson, you will learn about the 4 different ways of implementing AutoLayout, which one we recommend you use, and why. You also will delve deeper into the recommended way: UIStackViews.
  • View Properties used by AutoLayout
    • AutoLayout uses 3 properties that all views share: intrinsicContentSize, compressionResistence and contentHugging. Don't be put away by the weird names! It's actually pretty simple, and in this lesson, you'll learn all about them.
  • Beginning StackViews
    • In this lesson, you will learn about 4 properties of StackViews that define its apparently weird behavior. Once you're done with this lesson, you will understand there's a logic to StackViews, and a lot of power too.
  • Positioning Views & Constraints
    • In this lesson, your will learn what a constraint is and well as the role of constraints in AutoLayout.
  • Horizontal Layouts
    • In this lesson, we will create simple horizontal layouts. These will be building blocks for more complex layouts.
  • Vertical Layouts
    • In this lesson, we will take composition and vertical layouts to the next step and use them to create more complex layouts.
