Hi Brian, Thanks for the tutorial. Question, how come your Message is a class and not a struct?

[@oisbelsimpsonverdecia9458]

Hello. Can you do a video about GET or POST request to an API that the server require Basic Auth in Swift 5. There is some info about a delegate implement authentication challenge but is not clear. Thank you in advance.

I also need this

[@DjLeonSKennedy]

JavaScript "fetch" now looks ideal of all possible way to make request in the universe! what a noisy language this swift

[@ucmanhpham5647]

I am not well about javascript, but i guess that Js is script lang in browser and request JSON type is Javascript code, Of course, it is convenient to fetch

I start to learn developing IOS apps with Swift. I want to ask something. I always use libraries like 'Moya' or 'Alamofire' to request API. What do you think should i use libraries or is that enough ?

[@BrianAdvent]

Alamofire e.g. is really powerful and simplifies a lot of networking tasks. However, it is a dependency (well maintained and tested but still a dependency) that you might not need for the usage of a simple API. If it gets more complex (image data transfer, certificate handling, request retrying, ...) then I would also choose e.g. Alamofire.

[@shivaskanthan6144]

I would suggest using URLSessions as opposed to AlamoFire. There are a lot of excellent articles on it replacing AlamoFire as the go to library since its built and managed by Apple

Hi, Brian! Thank you for videos! I have been writing program on mac os. I need to store application preferences. What i should use? Core data? Bundles? Or something else. Can u help me please? Thanks a lot!

[@sinntechnologies6285]

I had to find an answer to these questions a couple weeks ago. If you have relational data, you would use core data. If you have none private data with small bits of information, such as theme colors. You would use UserDefaults. If you have small amounts of data that needs to stay private, such as passwords or tokens. You would use Keychain. I know this was a year ago, but in case others are looking.

[@dolphinmoto3226]

Thanks! Really good answer👍😃

Great video Brian. I am looking to do something similar. I have a ride sharing app where the rider makes a payment through PayPal and the driver gets paid through PayPal as well. The payment made from the rider is working perfectly but somehow having an issue getting the payout to the driver to work in swift. The way it was done in Android was, at the touch of a button and the balance owing to the driver in a text view, a post request is sent through Firebase functions to PayPal ... I have sent to your email the code on how it is done through Android - I need help how to do this through Swift. PLEASE HELP ~ Thanks in advance ~. lizgcanada
