How to build a UICollectionView like the App Store

Once again the super zoom is driving me crazy

Hi Paul, I hope you can see this. If you can add the pre code so we can build with you. That would be amazing!

amazing video thanks for such valuable masterclass videos!!!!

How can I get appstore.json. Can you give me the source please. Many thanks

fantastic video. thank you

Pretty useful video, I like what's going on here

Paul, I positively admire your presentation skills. This is so to the point, clear, informative, vivid. I know how much work it is to prepare such a tutorial, what you do looks so utterly effortless and casual. Please make tutorials on how to make tutorials! ;-)

Amazing!

thanks a lot!

Amazing ♥️

Thanks you it inspires me to do something new

It would be interesting to compare the exact same thing done with SwiftUI, just to see how they compare. I know some have done things like this already in SwiftUI, just gotta find one.

Can someone please tell me how to decide the estimated height magic number? When I tried to build this myself, I used a different number and my layout didn't turn out to be like the finished app. And I started to think my constraints in the cell might be wrong. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

"these folks deserve our appreciation and love" ))

Hey Paul , excellent things you are providing.. :)

can you suggest me anything for my doubt?
I have build collection view using UICollectionViewCompositionalLayout and UICollectionViewDiffableDataSource.
I am trying to scroll collectionView on particular index of NSCollectionLayoutGroup on didSelect of any cell of collectionView, but not able to scroll.

can you make a video on how to do a get json request from online rather than the file cheers. Video is amazing btw

Awesome tutorial!

Simply amazing..

U are the best!

I wish there was a tutorial like this for Objective-C! My boss is making us use that instead of Swift :(

how can i make the same thing for ios 10?

Great video, thanks. What's the best way to present new views by tapping items in your code ?

Oh my gosh... Nice tutorial and the woman in the meme pic is a Brazilian actress lol 😂

the corner radius for FeaturedCell's Imageview is not working as expected. can you please explain why?

You nailed it Paul, You connected all dots together. Kudos :👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Is there any ways to do this with the new Swift UI update?

Great video Paul. Would be amazing to see v2 of this where you use self sizing cells etc rather than hard coding the heights

not the biggest fan of stackviews, but the way you use it here, its awesome. and thank you for this amazing tutorial!

mind blown!

Awesome video thank you Paul

thank you so much for the tutorials

i tried if indexpath.section ==0 {
Same data for all sections I’d be so grateful if you help to store different data for each section and item idk if you got the idea

Amazing video Paul! That barely relates to what I do with Collection Views. Will definitely see the WWDC talks you suggest and clone your git repo. Thanks a bunch man, your content is priceless!

DOOD!

Do you even use autocomplete in xCode??

Simply amazing...Thanks Paul

DOOD!

a video like this come only from Paul Hudson, no one else can put so much knowlge in 50 minutes, Thanks Paul.

I've added a small extension to the protocol:


extension SelfConfiguringCell {
static var reuseIdentifier: String {
return String(describing: self)
}
}


This way we can omit to set the reuseIdentifier manually for every cell that conforms to the protocol :)

Thank you Paul! Excellent stuff. You really are THE source on Swift! Really appreciated!
EDIT:
I did find using type as a property of Section confusing (section.type vs Section.type). Took me a while to see that ...

Can I ask, lets say I want to let Section take in more than just let items: [App] but instead make it generic to let it take in [Games], [Person]... etc, how would one apply generics in this case?

Does anyone know how to then use these imageviews to transition to other view controllers? I have created buttons instead but perform segue is not available from the Cell class. @Rebeloper any ideas?

It is great tutorial thank you very much.

Amazing! I'm about to refactor a section of my app that'll have a similar UI, and your video has helped me understand a lot of these new collection view APIs. Thank you!

I'm a simple man, I see casting couch - I click the thumbnail

Dear Paul I tried to replicate your project in SwiftUI using ScrollView... 
The only problem is that ScrollView does not have a Paging property... 
I also used some of your project materials... 
Thank you.

Great video Paul. Any chance you can make a part 2 to this video that shows how to segue to a "detailed" view?

Good and useful. Thanks!

Very helpful content!

Question: do you know how to get the scrolling events of orthogonal scrolling?
I can use collectionView's delegate to get the scrolling events of scrolling vertically (as in the example in the video), but how can I get the scrolling events of scrolling horizontally (as in the first section of the example in the video)?
