Do any of these warnings sound familiar?
This program is designed to fix them, one by one.
- You ask the agent for a feature and get back hundreds of lines you don’t dare merge.
- You use Claude Code or Codex, but every session starts from scratch: no rules, no memory, no checks.
- You review more generated code than you write, and you’re not sure you’re actually going faster.
- You watched WWDC 2026 and don’t know which parts of Xcode 27 deserve a place in your workflow.
- Your app doesn’t use Foundation Models yet, and you don’t know where to start without breaking things.
- Siri, Spotlight and Shortcuts don’t know your app exists.
What you’ll be able to do
- Understand models and their limits so you choose tools with judgment
- Configure Claude Code and Codex with instructions, permissions, skills and checks aligned with your project
- Run the full SDD cycle: specification, reviewed plan, traceable tasks, implementation and tests
- Work with Xcode 27 to plan, prototype screens, refine changes and verify results
- Integrate Foundation Models and Core AI with structured generation, inference and semantic search
- Expose actions and content through App Intents, Shortcuts and Spotlight, and test them with Siri AI
- Prepare a multilingual launch package and automate its delivery to App Store Connect with OpenClaw
In short: stop fighting the agent and start directing it.
There are no exams: we assess what you build. The certificate of completion is based on your performance and participation, not on showing up.
Specify, direct and verify
That’s the developer’s new role. The agent writes; the responsibility is still yours.
- You specify. Requirements, acceptance criteria and the API contract, before a single line of code.
- You direct. A reviewed plan, atomic tasks and an agent that works within your rules.
- You verify. Build, tests, diffs and visual checks. Every task closes with evidence.
- One app throughout. No isolated labs: the same codebase moves forward block by block until launch.
Curriculum
Seven blocks and fourteen modules. Updated for Xcode 27 after WWDC 2026.
What you’ll build
Six hands-on projects within the 30 teaching hours, on a single app.
Specification, implementation, information retrieval and system actions form one connected path. Each project leaves you with something to keep:
- A reusable agent environment. Instructions, a skill or command, delegation and automated checks, with reviewed permissions
- A full SDD cycle. A spec on top of a REST API, an approved plan, traceable tasks, implementation and acceptance tests
- The Xcode 27 workflow. A reviewed plan, screen alternatives, inline refinement and evidence from build, tests and visual checks
- Intelligence and retrieval. Typed output, embeddings, semantic search and answers with sources, or a fallback without generation
- System integration. Typed actions and entities, indexed content, tests in Shortcuts and Spotlight, and a Siri AI lab
- A multilingual launch package. Listing and assets in Spanish and English, a versioned manifest, a simulated delivery and an ASO hypothesis
Julio commented on “Plan.md”
If you haven’t reviewed the plan, you haven’t reviewed the code either.
Assessment criteria
- No exams
- We assess what you build in the projects, not what you memorise.
- Evidence
- Code, tests and visual checks: every task closes by proving it works.
- Launch
- A validated package, versioned manifest, reviewed translations, dry run and delivery diffs.
- Judgment
- A measurable optimisation hypothesis, not a promise of results.
- Certificate
- Of completion, based on your performance and participation.
And you leave with an app with AI and system actions, ready for launch, and a workflow you use on Monday.
Support
- Ten live sessions
- 7–10 pm (Spain, CET), between November 30 and December 17. Real problems and implementation decisions, live.
- Recordings
- Every class is recorded so you can go back over the work whenever you need to.
- Private Discord community
- With the rest of the cohort and the academy’s alumni.
- Your projects
- Everything you build in class is yours, to apply to your own projects from day one.
The agent proposes. You decide what gets in.
What’s new in this edition
We review the whole curriculum after every WWDC. This cohort brings in what Apple announced in June.
SAP26 · v1.0
- New The full Xcode 27 workflow: /plan, screen prototypes, Coding Tools and native MCP.
- New Core AI to run third-party models on Apple silicon, and native semantic search.
- New Siri AI and App Intents schemas, with a lab on iPhone.
- New OpenClaw to prepare and deliver the launch to App Store Connect with human oversight.
Who’ll be with you
Julio César Fernández
Founder of Apple Coding Academy, Apple Technical Partner. More than 30 years programming, and teaching AI applied to development since 2017, when Apple launched Core ML.
I’m not here to teach you how to write prompts. I’m here to teach you not to accept code you can’t defend, whoever wrote it.
— Julio
Investment
We’ll go over it with you.
VAT-exempt as vocational training under Spanish law. We give you the amount and the conditions in writing during the conversation. Art. 20.One.9, Law 37/1992.
- Special conditions for early payment until November 5, 2026
- Special price for alumni
- Single payment; other options on request
- Eligible for FUNDAE funding (Spain’s training credit system) if your company is training you. If it has no one to file it, we’ll introduce it to someone who does

Julio commented on “FUNDAE”
If your company is training you, ask about FUNDAE before paying.
They were already coding when they arrived
Had worked with Swift for years
“Even after working with Swift for years, it’s surprising how much I’ve been able to learn.”
Jon González Erauso iOS Developer at MO2O Came from Android
“It’s been a turning point in the way I program.”

Questions you ask us
The questions we hear most, already answered. If yours isn’t here, we’ll answer it in the conversation.
Is it for me if I’m just starting to code?
No. It isn’t a beginner course: we build on your experience and don’t teach Swift, SwiftUI or architecture fundamentals. If you’re starting out, your path is the Swift Engineering Program.
Closed · answered by the team
What do I need to know before starting?
Real experience with Swift and SwiftUI, an architecture (MVVM, MVC, Clean or similar), concurrency with async/await, everyday use of Git, Xcode and the terminal, and apps published on the App Store.
Closed · answered by the team
Which Mac do I need?
A Mac with Apple Silicon, macOS Golden Gate, Xcode 27 and the Metal Toolchain. Intel Macs aren’t compatible.
Closed · answered by the team
Do I have to pay for Claude Code, Codex or other tools?
AI tools may have costs depending on the provider. In the conversation we look at what you already have and what you actually need to follow the program.
Closed · answered by the team
Do I have to publish a real app?
No. The launch project can be completed with a local simulation, and assessment doesn’t require Apple to approve or publish your app. Real operations require authorised access to App Store Connect.
Closed · answered by the team
What if I miss a session?
You have recordings of every class. The hands-on work happens during the sessions, so it’s worth attending live whenever you can.
Closed · answered by the team
Can my company pay for it?
Yes. It’s eligible for FUNDAE funding. The paperwork is handled by your company or its training provider; if it has no one to file it, we’ll introduce it to someone who does.
Closed · answered by the team
Is it taught in English?
Classes and materials are in Spanish. If that’s a blocker, tell us in the conversation and we’ll be honest about whether it works for you.

The next step
Tell us how you work today. We’ll map it out.
We go over your experience, how you use AI and what you want to hand off to an agent. If the program fits, we’ll tell you. If it doesn’t, we’ll tell you that too.
What we’ll analyze
- Your Swift experience and how you use AI today
- What you want to hand off to an agent and what you don’t
- Your Mac, your setup and the AI tools
- Investment, conditions and FUNDAE, with real numbers
What you take away, whether you join or not
A clear answer on whether this program is for you and, if it is, your seat for November 30.
