Apple wants to bring many more people into coding; this is their solution. The app incorporates lessons and challenges -- it is very much a teaching tool, technology website 9to5mac.com said.


The free Swift Playgrounds will be available in the App Store and a developer preview was released on Monday.

The code appears on the left with a preview on the right. Apple has made several different tutorials to gradually explain to people how to learn Swift.

This includes fully three-dimensional basic 'games' using Swift functions to control the character.
