From Idea to App Store: How to Build an iOS App Using AI-Powered Development with OpenAI and ChatGPT Part 2

Networking to the App Store

This is a continuation of a project where I build an AI-assisted App from idea to App store. Part 1 got us a working App, but unfortunately didn’t have any networking. Part 2 is going to put that right!

I’ve already started the project but want to add images from a BE endpoint. I chose http://picsum.photos because I’m aware that endpoint will return different random image each time it’s called. Unfortunately I didn’t choose to get ChatGPT to help with that choice. I did however ask ChatGPT to use this code to improve my work!

I can only assume the third-party library is Kingfisher. That’s not problem but is a little bit of a leap for a beginner coder. Nevermind though.

This works! For a little JOY!
