In this series I’ll show you how to create a simple Day Counter on iOS, using Objective-C and Xcode 9. The idea is to set a date in a settings screen, and then see how many days have elapsed on the main screen right after launching the app.
This is a 3-Part Mini-Series:
- Part 1 is all about building the interface in Interface Builder
- Part 2 is about coding the NSDate subtraction methods, using NSCalendar and loading/saving data using NSUserDefaults
- Part 3 will introduce Key/Value Observing to update the first view controller as soon as the date is changed in the settings and deals with how to normalise an NSDate object.

Happy Hacking!
