Quick Start: Hello Async/​Await

import Foundation

// Swift 6.0 with async/​await
actor GreeterService {
    func greet(name: String) -> String {
        "Hello, \(name)!"
    }
}

// Usage
Task {
    let service = GreeterService()
    let greeting = await service.greet(name: "Swift")
    print(greeting)
}

Level 1: Quick Reference

Core Concepts

1. Async/​Await - Modern concurrency without callbacks

   • Function marked with async - Suspends for I/​O
   • Caller uses await - Waits for result
   • Native error handling with throws
   • Replaces callbacks and completion handlers

2. SwiftUI - Declarative UI framework

   • State-driven views update automatically
   • @State for local state
   • @StateObject for ViewModels
   • Composable views with modifiers

3. Combine - Reactive programming

   • Publishers emit values
   • Operators transform pipelines
   • Subscribers receive results
   • Error handling with .catch

4. Actors - Thread-safe state isolation

   • Protect mutable state automatically
   • Replace locks and semaphores
   • @MainActor for UI thread
   • Distributed actors for RPC

5. Vapor - Server-side Swift

   • Async route handlers
   • Database integration (Fluent)
   • Middleware for cross-cutting concerns
   • Type-safe API responses

Level 2: Implementation Patterns

Async/​Await Pattern

import Foundation

// Structured async function
func fetchData() async throws -> String {
    let url = URL(string: "https://api.example.com/​data")!
    let (data, _) = try await URLSession.shared.data(from: url)
    return String(data: data, encoding: .utf8) ?? ""
}

// Concurrent operations with TaskGroup
func loadMultipleResources() async throws -> (String, String) {
    try await withThrowingTaskGroup(of: (String, String).self) { group in
        group.addTask { ("users", try await fetchUsers()) }
        group.addTask { ("posts", try await fetchPosts()) }

        var results: [String: String] = [:]
        for try await (key, value) in group {
            results[key] = value
        }
        return (results["users"] ?? "", results["posts"] ?? "")
    }
}

SwiftUI State Management

import SwiftUI

@MainActor
class ContentViewModel: ObservableObject {
    @Published var items: [String] = []
    @Published var isLoading = false

    func loadItems() async {
        isLoading = true
        defer { isLoading = false }

        do {
            items = try await fetchItems()
        } catch {
            items = []
        }
    }
}

struct ContentView: View {
    @StateObject private var viewModel = ContentViewModel()

    var body: some View {
        NavigationView {
            VStack {
                if viewModel.isLoading {
                    ProgressView()
                } else {
                    List(viewModel.items, id: \.self) { item in
                        Text(item)
                    }
                }
            }
            .navigationTitle("Items")
            .task {
                await viewModel.loadItems()
            }
        }
    }
}

Actor Isolation Pattern

// Thread-safe counter
actor CounterService {
    private var count: Int = 0

    func increment() { count += 1 }
    func decrement() { count -= 1 }
    func getCount() -> Int { count }
}

// Usage (automatically thread-safe)
Task {
    let counter = CounterService()
    await counter.increment()
    let value = await counter.getCount()
}

Vapor Server Route

import Vapor

func routes(_ app: Application) throws {
    // GET /​api/​users
    app.get("api", "users") { req async -> [String: String] in
        return ["status": "success"]
    }

    // POST /​api/​users
    app.post("api", "users") { req async -> HTTPStatus in
        // Save user
        return .created
    }
}

Level 3: Advanced Topics

Concurrency Best Practices

1. Prefer async/​await over Combine for sequential operations
2. Use actors for mutable shared state (not locks)
3. Mark UI code @MainActor to ensure main thread
4. Handle cancellation properly in long-running tasks
5. Avoid blocking operations (no sleep, no synchronous I/​O)

Performance Optimization

• Memory: Use value types (struct) by default
• CPU: Profile with Xcode Instruments
• Rendering: Keep SwiftUI view body pure
• Networking: Implement request caching
• Database: Use connection pooling in Vapor

Security Patterns

• Input validation: Always validate user input
• Error handling: Don't expose internal errors to users
• Encryption: Use CryptoKit for sensitive data
• Authentication: Implement JWT or OAuth2
• SQL injection prevention: Use parameterized queries

Testing Strategy

• Unit tests: Pure functions with XCTest
• Integration tests: Database and API tests
• UI tests: SwiftUI view behavior
• Mocking: Use protocols for dependency injection

Troubleshooting

Problem: Sendable conformance error Solution: Implement Sendable protocol or use @Sendable closure

Problem: Actor isolation violation Solution: Use nonisolated for safe properties or proper await calls

Problem: Memory leaks in closures Solution: Capture [weak self] to break retain cycles

Problem: SwiftUI view not updating Solution: Ensure state changes happen on @MainActor
