Xcode project template for native Html5 apps is now Swift2/Xcode 7 ready

This is a very short blog post to describe my latest commit to this template. The Xcode project template in question here is my open-source repo on Github, titled Html5StarterAppWithSwift. This repo came to be while I was working on my iOS app, My Day Todos and if you need to know what that repo is, then have a look at this README file or this blog post. 

The latest update to the repo: Swift 2

When Xcode 7 was released, so was Swift 2 and since this repo was built using Xcode 6 and Swift 1, I had to migrate it so people do not have any issues when working with this on Xcode 7. I think there may still be people working with Xcode 6 for at least another few months and hence, my original Xcode 6 compliant code is still there. I have added another branch to this repo called, SwiftOne which has the Xcode 6 and Swift 1 code.

Upcoming features: Charting and what else?

Very soon, I will be demonstrating how to use an Html5 based charting solution in a native iOS app via this repo (Html5StarterAppWithSwift). I may use one of the charting libraries mentioned here or morris.js. So if you have any feature requests or anything that you would like to see demonstrated in this repo, then please leave a comment or create an issue here.
