# Flash-Chat

## Our Goal

One of the most fundamental component of modern iOS apps is the Table View. Table Views are used everywhere from the Mail app to the Messages app. It’s a crucial part of every iOS developer’s tool belt. In this projext  we’ll be getting to grips with Table Views, creating custom cells, and making our own cloud-based backend database.

## What you will create

Flash Chat is an internet based messaging app similar to WhatsApp, the popular messaging app that was bought by Facebook for $22 billion. We will be using a service called Firebase Firestore as a backend database to store and retrieve our messages from the cloud. 

## What you will learn

* How to integrate third party libraries in your app using Cocoapods and Swift Package Manager.

* How to store data in the cloud using Firebase Firestore.

* How to query and sort the Firebase database.

* How to use Firebase for user authentication, registration and login.

* How to work with UITableViews and how to set their data sources and delegates.

* How to create custom views using .xib files to modify native design components.

* How to embed View Controllers in a Navigation Controller and understand the navigation stack.

* How to create a constants file and use static properties to store Strings and other constants.

* Learn about Swift loops and create animations using loops.

* Learn about the App Lifecycle and how to use viewWillAppear or viewWillDisappear.

* How to create direct Segues for navigation.
