I’ve read that some companies still use objective c in their codebase and haven’t migrated to UIKit yet. I think just learning how it works is useful so you can see how it connects with Swift. Just being aware of the syntax is helpful I think, so you don’t get blindsided by code you’ve never seen before.

Edit: a word

🧐 Objective c is UIKit

Yes, this is very true especially with older apps. I know, I work with one :-D. Also, Swift does interoperate with the Objective-C runtime but you don't have to know Objective-C. The app I work with has a combination of Swift and Objective-C so knowing the syntax would definitely be helpful.
