Opaque types @7:20 In Swift, "opaque types" are types where the concrete underlying type is hidden. They are declared using the some keyword. Opaque types are useful when you want to hide implementation details and provide abstraction. Here's a simple example in Swift: swift Copy code protocol Animal { func makeSound() } struct Dog: Animal { func makeSound() { print("Woof!") } } struct Cat: Animal { func makeSound() { print("Meow!") } } func randomAnimal() -> some Animal { return Bool.random() ? Dog() : Cat() } let animal = randomAnimal() animal.makeSound() // Output: Either "Woof!" or "Meow!" In this example, the function randomAnimal returns an opaque type some Animal. The concrete type returned by randomAnimal is hidden from the caller. The compiler ensures that the returned value conforms to the Animal protocol, but it does not expose the specific type of the returned value. This allows you to work with values of unknown concrete types while still benefiting from type safety and abstraction.
@@iCode_Happy_Coding Sir I am fresher does training of 3 months in ios and going for interview for ios developer pls tell me questions so that i can crack.
This is interesting, thank you. I have been studying for months, but for some reason, your depth of knowledge seems beyond me. My question is, it seems like they want you to have everything memorized? What about knowing how to do everything without being great at explaining?
Thanks for the kind words 🙂 And it’s not like they want you to memorise the things, instead they want to know the things with which we are dealing day in day out. When it comes to memorising stuff, they will ask questions like “in which iOS version XYZ was introduced” etc.. that’s about remembering it. But what good interviewers do is that they try to understand the your approach, the concept you know. For example, the protocol question in the video, ui updation on main thread concept. I hope that I answered your question up to some extent. Thanks 🙂
The way you keep answering, That's so awesome, one can't stop watching in between. Can you please make such mock interview with DS and Algo topic? That would be so helpful or if you can share the link if you already have one of it. Thanks!
Thanks Nihanth, I'm happy that you liked the video 🙂 and I completely agree with your point that there are absolutely no resources for preparing for system design rounds (for mobile devs). Will cover it very soon.
I'm glad that it was helpful for you. Will be releasing more such content (covering system design rounds/architectures) soon. All the best for your interviews 🙂
All tips were great and informative, expecting other parts too. Interview questions like design patterns used in Cocoa touch, Architecture patterns and many more.
I get this is a senior-level interview but as a person who is just starting to apply for an entry position, this is a lot of information and I barely know any answers to those questions. What would you recommend for the people like me to start preparing for these questions?
Well most interview questions I've seen from actually being in the field are a good grasp on concurrency in swift, GCD, sync vs async, optionals, difference between reference and value types, closures, class vs structs, know what it means for swift to be a protocol oriented programming, ARC memory management , know what value types add to swift, understand all the major architectures, MVC , MVVM, VIPER, and what the coordinator does when added, Know different design patterns like bridges & adapters etc, know the static method definition, and potentially DSA depending on the employer. There are many other nuance things but these are really good common concepts you'll see asked for sure.
Super-duper! Thanks a lot! keep up the good work. MVVM vs MVC, struct vs class, concurrency and multithreading n more via mock are curiously expecting…
Sure. I'm working on the content and will be releasing the videos for mock interviews soon(both initial rounds and system design rounds). Glad that you liked the video 🙂
Stored properties require memory to save values, and adding them through extensions will require addition in memory allotted for that type. That is how the existing behaviour of the types is being changed, which extensions are not allowed to do. That's why they can have computed properties, not stored ones. I hope that clears. Thanks for watching the video 🙂
That relates to the memory allocation patterns of Swift, and in case of functions (local variables) it is done on stacks (instead of heaps). I’ll try to discuss this in detail in one of the upcoming videos. Meanwhile, this can answer some of your queries heartbeat.fritz.ai/memory-management-in-swift-heaps-stacks-baa755abe16a
@pallav I would like to give you some donation, so that you can carry your work and focus on more Design Question on iOS Side. I also worked as iOS Application developer since last 10 years but never seen so contentfull videos. You are doing great work.
Thanks for this video. Content was on point. I was wondering what will be the degree of relevance of leetcode style questions in interviews? At SDE2 or SDE1?
Thanks for the kind words Rachit. About the leetcode thing, did you mean about DSA questions. That depends on the company that you are appearing for. Some of them focus more on System Design for SDE 2, while some of them still put DSA as a major filter for both SDE 1 and 2. I'll try to cover DSA questions for mobile developers soon. If I didn't get you right, let me know.
Hi. Thanks for sharing this interview session. To clear the interview there are different rounds that will be there for any company. could you please post a set of interview rounds like that? Thanks.
Hi Pallav, Is it possible to prepare for coding problems, DSA and DP in Swift? Or we have to do this in C++ or java? If it is possible then can you please share a good book or content of it where I can prepare it? Thanks in advance.
Hi, I'm not Pallav but maybe this can help you. First, yes, you can prepare yourself to practice with swift, give it a try in leetcode and hacker rank. For resources, google it and look for Swift data structure and algorithms from pack publishing, DSA in swift of raywenderlich and last but not least udacity swift DSA this one is a free course. Cheers.
Awesome video.. one question though, in case of computed properties in protocols, don’t we need to declare it in protocol as getter before writing into extension directly?
Thanks Arjun. We’ll be releasing interviews videos for System Design round and other tech rounds very soon. Stay tuned. Glad that you found it useful 🙂
I recently gone through an interview and they gave a feedback stating you also need to do some certifications. What do you think what kind of certifications can a Mac/iOS developer can complete. Let me know if there are any

Opaque types @7:20
In Swift, "opaque types" are types where the concrete underlying type is hidden. They are declared using the some keyword. Opaque types are useful when you want to hide implementation details and provide abstraction.
Here's a simple example in Swift:
swift
Copy code
protocol Animal {
func makeSound()
}
struct Dog: Animal {
func makeSound() {
print("Woof!")
}
}
struct Cat: Animal {
func makeSound() {
print("Meow!")
}
}
func randomAnimal() -> some Animal {
return Bool.random() ? Dog() : Cat()
}
let animal = randomAnimal()
animal.makeSound() // Output: Either "Woof!" or "Meow!"
In this example, the function randomAnimal returns an opaque type some Animal. The concrete type returned by randomAnimal is hidden from the caller. The compiler ensures that the returned value conforms to the Animal protocol, but it does not expose the specific type of the returned value.
This allows you to work with values of unknown concrete types while still benefiting from type safety and abstraction.
very informative, i will watch it many times so i can understand all the answers clearly.
Glad it was helpful! 🙂

Just small correction in video 3:58 i.e protocol can have either getter or getter and setter. :)

02:40 it's not that swift "extended" optional to value types. there are no value typed in ObjectiveC to begin with, right?
Most of the content was Informative. I’d appreciate if you could do system design mocks in iOS. I think that’s something that has lil to no resources.

Swift is reference type or value type? and how
Thanks for the video and some points were more clear the UI rendering on the main thread.
Thank you for sharing. Its really helpful
great video helped a lot 👍

Hi Pallav
Thanks for this video.
I didn't clearly understand the reason why extensions cannot have stored properties
Stored properties require memory to save values, and adding them through extensions will require addition in memory allotted for that type. That is how the existing behaviour of the types is being changed, which extensions are not allowed to do. That's why they can have computed properties, not stored ones. I hope that clears.
Thanks for watching the video 🙂
@@iCode_Happy_Coding And what happens when we add below things in extension
1. New methods
2. Computed properties
In terms of memory?
That relates to the memory allocation patterns of Swift, and in case of functions (local variables) it is done on stacks (instead of heaps).
I’ll try to discuss this in detail in one of the upcoming videos. Meanwhile, this can answer some of your queries

Awesome.. Make some videos on interview preparations based on topics.
Good work.
Thanks for the suggestion Akshay. I recently did the video on Struct vs Class, you can have a look. I'll try cover more topics soon.
This is such an informative video. Could you please make more videos on ios interview prep.?
Sure Shivi, I'll try to cover more interview topics 🙂
Hehe protocols can’t actually hold variables, although I certainly see the confusion, get and set is really just protocol functions for implementation
Nicely done. However, an interview feels incomplete without the ending - HR will get back to you ;)
Haha... So true 😅
Make video on swift basic
Nice Video Pallav ... This will definitely help :)
