Hacking with Swift has been a life saver for me; I'm still in UIKit land (only because MacCatalyst didn't like SwiftUI to begin with) -- but these guys are amazing. They get you to the point where you can actually read Apple's documentation...

Thank you! I had thought I was the only one who couldn't read Apple's extremely sparse documentation pages with no examples, surely they were sufficient for REAL programmers somewhere who were not me. (Come on Apple, you can't include an example of calling a Button on your documentation page? https://developer.apple.com/documentation/swiftui/button)

Hacking with Swift is impressive in how much ground it covers.

I learned from the official SwiftUI tutorials: https://developer.apple.com/tutorials/swiftui/tutorials

Apple’s documentation is terrible from a usability standpoint. The design looks great, but it’s absolutely useless and incredibly confusing when used as a guide during learning.
