Advanced App Architecture

By René Cacheaux

Thoughtful design of the boundaries between your apps subsystems is the foundation of a stable codebase. In this workshop, we cover how to create a well designed boundary between subsystems, dependency injection, use case driven development, creating injectable subsystems, and using state management to result in a clean architecture for your apps.

Building Reusable Frameworks

By Eric Cerney

Using shared code from the community has become a major benefit for developers. Why not pay it back and share the awesome things you’ve written with the world? In this session, you’ll learn how to create a framework from your code that’s compatible with all three of the main dependency manager players: Cocoapods, Carthage, and the Swift Package Manager.

08.

Swift Memory Management

By Ray Fix

While the design of Swift and the compiler relieve you from much of the drudgery associated with reference counting, it is critical that you understand what the system is doing for you, so that you can create higher performance, bug free apps. Learn how to think about objects and closures and how to use the latest Xcode tools to analyze and debug your code.

09.

Cross-Platform React Native

By Christine Abernathy

React Native is a framework for building native apps with React. It’s been used by many developers who are drawn to it’s learn once, write anywhere paradigm and fast development cycle. In this session you’ll learn how to create a cross-platform (iOS and Android) app, learning how to create an app from scratch and how to integrate React Native into an existing native app.

10.

Fastlane

By Kishin Manglani

Fastlane is a suite of tools to help automate building and release iOS (and Android!) apps. From creating screenshots to handling provisioning to submitting your application, Fastlane can help with it all. In this session, you’ll learn how to use these tools to help automate the mundane tasks we all dread doing in iTunes Connect.

11.

RxSwift in Practice

By Marin Todorov

RxSwift, and its companion framework RxCocoa, allow you to create reactive apps for iOS and macOS. Glancing upon some Rx code might be intimidating without a proper introduction but in this session we will start in Playgrounds, learn the core concepts, and then move on to building a real iOS application in Xcode. Just beware - you might like programming with RxSwift too much :]

By Lea Marolt Sonnenschein

Users abandon apps when they can’t figure out how to use it fast enough. To lower the abandonment rate for your app, create an on-boarding experience that keeps the user engaged, informed and delighted the first time they open your app. In this session we’ll talk about the pros and cons on on-boarding, when to use it, and best practices. Finally, we will brainstorm and implement our own on-boarding experience!
