Metal is a low level API that provides near-direct access to the graphics processing unit (GPU), enabling you to maximize the graphics and compute potential of your apps on iOS, macOS and tvOS. If you want to write your own game or have some fancy advanced animations in an app, Metal is the right choice for you.

In the workshop, you’ll learn how to breathe life into 3D models. You’ll load them using Model I/O, draw them on the screen, transform them, put some textures on them and apply some basic lighting and animate them!

Prerequisites: Knowledge of Swift, basic knowledge of vectors and matrices

Software requirements: Xcode, git
