I want to take my Swift understanding to the next level Back when I was doing C++ in college, the moment Classes and objects clicked for me was watching a video where the tutor explained in detail what was occurring in the background for each line of code. This video. Skip through it to get a feel for what I mean link to this video I’ve been doing Swift for about a year and half now, and I know the how of things, not the why. I’m looking for an intuitive understanding of Swift especially topics like multithreading, and memory allocation.
