When I first decided to start moving my project’s codebase towards Swift, my first impression was to go to Lynda. The presenter is Simon Allardice, of which I first learned Objective-C through Lynda’s previous videos many, many years ago. If you’re thinking about making the jump, I cannot recommend Lynda’s videos highly enough.
