On March 12th 2015, I gave a brief show & tell about how I used Sprite Kit to make something that isn't a game at the Seattle Xcoders meetup.

The slides and sample code have been posted to my GitHub page.

Note that the posted sample code is a simplified project only focusing on the Sprite Kit section of the talk. For example; the interactive line chart which was also briefly demonstrated has been replaced with a static image.

The event was recorded, but the video hasn't been posted yet. I'll update this post once it's available. In the meantime here are links to some good resources about Sprite Kit;
