Complying with Apple's New Privacy Requirements in the App Store

One of the latest changes introduced by Apple is that developers needs to describe the data your app or third-party SDK collects and provide the required reasons of the APIs it uses. To do so, applications and third-party SDKs that are distributed as XCFrameworks, Swift packages, or Xcode projects, need to contain a privacy manifest file, named PrivacyInfo.xcprivacy.

Swift Standard Library Protocols - A guide to Equatable, Comparable, Hashable, and Identifiable.

There are several protocols featured in the Swift Standard Library that enable generic programming in Swift. By defining common behaviors and functionalities for types and collections, these protocols provide a standard way for types to interact with each other. Today we’re going to take a look at four of the key Swift Standard Library Protocols, these are: We’ll provide a brief overview of how each works, and then how we can implement them in our projects.

Deploying Microfrontends on AWS: A Guide for Developers

If you are new to Microfrontends architecture, it’s a modern approach for splitting the frontend of your application into multiple components, so it’s easier to code and manage. We’ve actually got a separate article, introducing the concept, which you can read here. Or, if you’ve already read that introduction and now want to go a step further, just read on.

Demystifying Microfrontends: A Practical Approach with React and Module Federation

Microfrontends is a modern front-end architectural approach, by which web applications are segmented (or decomposed) into smaller self-contained units, allowing for easier management and scalability. You can our introduction article to Microfrontends to understand better this architecture approach. Today we’re going to provide a step-by-step guide to the process of building a real-world application using React and Module Federation.

Implementing Real-Time Communication in iOS with WebSockets

In iOS, WebSockets enable real-time communication between a client (an iOS app) and a server. Unlike traditional HTTP connections which are stateless, short-lived and request data on demand, WebSockets use a single long-lived connection to send and receive data simultaneously. This significantly reduces response times which is crucial for apps that rely on instant updates and live data to support functions such as chat and multiplayer games.

Swift Networking Essentials: Using URLSession and URLRequest in iOS Apps

Let’s start at the very beginning, so it’s clear exactly what we’re talking about here – in Swift, networking is the process of sending and receiving data between an iOS application and a remote server or another device over the internet.

Integrating Realm Swift into Your iOS Projects: A Comprehensive Guide

If you’re building for mobile apps, you need Realm in your life. It’s specifically designed for mobile devs and even though it’s available on multiple platforms, it’s typically used to develop iOS apps, using Swift. Built on top of SQLite Realm Swift is a very high-level abstraction layer that simplifies database operations for the developer. Today we’re going to unpack it, with a guide that drills so far down into the subject, it’s practically in Australia.

iOS Core Data Explained: Storing data using Swift

Core Data enables us to manage the model layer of an Apple application. This layer is a crucial part of our app’s engine room, allowing the pretty bits at the front end to interact with the data and business logic at the back. We love Core Data because it provides a powerful database technology framework, and it’s built on top of the SQLite management system, which requires zero configuration or external storage space.
