Description

Have you ever tried to learn about memory leaks but thought it was too advanced or complicated to understand? If so, then "Visual Swift Memory Mastery" is the perfect course for you because you will become a master at finding and fixing memory leaks. First, you will learn the foundations of memory, how it works, and the two types we use in Swift. Next, you will understand why memory leaks even happen as I show you visually, enabling you to create, identify and resolve memory leaks. Finally, you're going to go through 3 different scenarios where we find memory leaks and resolve them with multiple solutions.

When you’re finished with this course, you will not only completely understand how to find and fix memory leaks using a variety of solutions but also how to check your current or previous apps for memory leaks and resolve them once and for all. In the workplace, your coworkers will be coming to you when they have memory leaks and you will be able to help them, just as I have helped you.
