Hi Ron,

I downloaded the source code and I kept getting some errors whenever I tried to convert to swift 3. Iโ€™d be grateful if the Code is updated to Latest Swift syntaxes. The Selfie-Starter code is producing around 17 issues when tried to Build. Iโ€™m new to Swift. Otherwise, Iโ€™d have tried debugging it myself.

Thanks,

Boston

From another tutorial:

About a year ago, Parse, one of the most popular backend solutions for mobile apps, announced it was shutting down their hosted service and instead open sourcing their SKs.

Since that time, many developers have migrated their apps over to the open source Parse Server. The parse platform is quite active, with 143 contributors and ~13K stars on GitHub.

This tutorial is more than six months old so questions are no longer supported at the moment for it. We will update it as soon as possible. Thank you! :]
