The Top 7 REST API Tools | 2025

Integrations are everywhere, and data-sharing between systems is more vital than ever. Software applications use application programming interfaces (APIs) to ensure all moving parts work together. A REST API follows specific guidelines that dictate how applications or devices connect and communicate with one another to make integrations simple and scalable.

Accelerate iOS Builds with Xcode 26 Compilation Caching on Bitrise

Long iOS build times are one of the biggest productivity drains for mobile teams. Developers lose hours waiting for builds to finish while CI pipelines burn resources recompiling code that hasn’t changed. With Xcode 26, Apple introduced Compilation Caching, a major leap forward that reuses compiled outputs instead of rebuilding them from scratch.

Accelerating Cloudnative Development & DevOps

Cloud-native development, and the resultant rise of DevOps, has transformed how software is built, deployed, and maintained. By embracing containerization, microservices, and continuous delivery, organizations have been able to deliver features faster, scale with demand, and recover from failures more gracefully than ever before. Many organizations are adopting these practices to keep up with industry demands and improve efficiency and security.

Learn Swift Composable Architecture

Swift Composable Architecture (TCA) is one of the cleanest and most scalable ways to build iOS and macOS apps today. Created by Point-Free, it pulls together state management, side effects, dependency injection, and modular design into one consistent and predictable system. Whether we’re crafting a tiny feature or designing a full-scale app, TCA helps us write Swift code that’s easier to test, easier to work out, and a lot less painful to maintain over time.
