ABOUT THIS COURSE
This course will teach you how to incorporate networking into your apps, so they can access data from around the world. You will explore how to harness the power of APIs to display images and retrieve movie data. As a practical exercise, you’ll build the “On the Map” app which allows you to share interesting links, projects, or other information with fellow Udacity students.
