\"Swift<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Creating a walk-through for Swift Playgrounds can sometimes feel like wrestling a bag of eels in a room with all the lights burnt out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Walk-throughs are a great way to set up content that learners can go through at their own pace as if they had a very patient senior software engineer sitting beside them, walking them through the code. I\u2019ve written a few on my Adventures feed (https:\/\/www.thecodehub.ie\/playgrounds\/<\/a>) and they\u2019re such a good way to help focus on specific app development techniques or tools people may have been asking about, but I\u2019m not necessarily going to be there in the room with them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There is a great WWDC talk from 2022, when the app launched, walking you through how to create content, but it\u2019s not always so easy:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

WWDC 22: Create engaging content for Swift Playgrounds:<\/strong> https:\/\/developer.apple.com\/wwdc22\/110349<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’ve recorded a video of many of these steps, and a few troubleshooting notes down below, even, about some common things you might want in your walk-through.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
