iOS Data Persistence: A Guide for Swift Developers

The term ‘data persistence’ refers to data that remains available, even when the program that created it is idle, sleeping or unable to open. In many cases, our iOS apps need to provide support around the clock, so we need our data to be ‘always on’ – even when the apps themselves are not.

Kotlin Unit Testing Guide for Android Developers: Best Practices & Techniques

Unit testing is one of the most powerful features of Android app development, saving us crucial time and reducing overall project cost and allowing developers to embrace test driven development With unit testing, we take an individual slice of code and test it to our requirements. If it passes, then the slice of code is pushed to the repository to merge with the existing code. If it fails, the developers fix the error and retest until it passes.

iOS In-App Purchases: A Comprehensive Guide for Swift Developers

iOS in-app purchases, or IAPs, allow developers to offer content, services, and features within their iOS apps for users to purchase. This can provide a significant revenue stream for developers, while enabling users to enhance their experience or access premium content and services. An iOS in app purchase can be a good alternative to paid applications, as an iO app developer can offer the app for free and monetize it via app purchasing options.

Robust JavaScript Error Handling: Best Practices and Tools

By combining custom errors, named functions, and Bugfender, you can create a robust JavaScript error-handling process that allows you to immediately identify the defects of your JavaScript apps. This article shows you some strategies, approaches, and best practices to ensure you create high-quality and high-performing JavaScript applications. Table of Contents.

Understanding Android In-App Purchases: A Developers' Guide

In-app purchases, or IAPs, allow users to access certain features within our apps beyond the basic free tiers, while enabling us to monetize our products. Via the Google Play Store, we can sell a single product in all currencies, without creating a new one for each country. Up until now, app-builders looking to revenue have tended to favor in-app ads (IAAs) over IAPs, because ad functionality is easier to implement.

Exploring Swift Extensions: Strategies for Efficient iOS Code

If you’ve done any work on iOS apps these last few years, you’ll know how concise and expressive the Swift language can be. And you may well have benefited from Swift extensions, a powerful mechanism that lets you, the developer, extend both your functionality and Swift’s, by extending any Objects and Structures you need. However, the variety and versatility of extensions does present teething challenges.

The iOS Developer's Playbook: Mastering SwiftUI Forms

In this article we’re going to examine how a SwiftUI Form can used in our SwiftUI apps. This will be a very technical article useful for any iOS developer, during which we’ll take a deep-dive into the code and then create a SwiftUI Form that combines a user profile with a settings screen. Table of Contents.

Understand Microfrontends: A Guide for Developers and CTOs

Microservices architecture has gained significant traction due to its ability to break down monolithic applications into smaller, independently deployable services. However, the benefits have often been lop-sided. While backend developers have realized numerous advantages, frontend adoption has been held back by tight coupling, slow development cycles and scalability issues. Microfrontends have emerged as a solution to these challenges by applying microservices principles to the frontend.

Swift Code Analysis: Integrating Sonarqube

SonarQube is an open-source platform that allows you to continuously inspect and measure code quality as you develop your project. It provides static code analysis for code issues, security issues, and code smells in various programming languages, including Swift. This helps development teams maintain and improve code quality by identifying and finding issues in the development lifecycle, if paired with a good testing methodology it can make a difference in your app quality.

A Comprehensive NextJS Router Guide for Developers

ReactJS is undoubtedly the most popular library for developers to build web and mobile applications. Its community is vast, so you get all the support you need as a developer while building applications. However, ReactJS is just a library for user interface development. It encourages us to build applications with the component architecture, which follows a tree hierarchy.
