Hi I've been asked to do this from JSON in iOS please help

  • this is what I e been asked to do ..... // render a list of people from the JSON feed provided. 
( they have sent a file with this in an email ) //

SO THE QUESTION IS ... can I render a list, in the same way we did with the plist in the "build a vending machine app " lesson ?

Hello:

Sure you can.. you can iterate through the JSON information and create a list. Perhaps an idea would be iterating, and then creating a dictionary or an array with the names from the JSON.

ok thanks Jhoan ,what do I need to do with the JSON file,
just add it to a file in my Xcode prodject and then iterate through it like we did in the plist lesson ?

also people are using swiftyJSON on youtube . Do I need to use that . ?

don't worry if you don't know all the answers, I was just thrown into the deep end so sorry for all the questions. .

SwiftyJSON is good to use for that.. I was going to recommended on my previews comment, but I am not sure how far you are in Swift or iOS development.
