In this tutorial, I show you how to use 2 popular frameworks (Alamofire & SwiftyJSON) to easily retrieve data from a REST API and display it in your app, as well as posting data to a server.
Steps:
1) Get API keys from RapidAPI & Pastebin
2) Add SwiftyJSON & Alamofire to project via Cocoapods
3) HTTP GET requests
4) HTTP POST requests
