2022-07-26 16:53:51 Discovered something great today I want to share with you! How many times defining a custom decodable initializer, for instance, have you lost the ability to use the automatically generated memberwise initialize, umm? Oh, I've faced it so often, especially in tests. So the solution is easy - just define this initializer in an extension, and that's it.

2022-07-08 15:11:50 iOS 16 comes with great improvements in app launch time. For apps like Lyft or Airbnb launching almost twice as fast.

And more in-depth posts as well:
- Speeding up protocol conformance checks
- Reducing the amount of data loaded from disk

2022-07-05 15:52:37 Let's figure out what's new in the Xcode Previews.
At least I hope they have become more reliable and don't crash every 5 minutes.

2022-06-07 11:26:44 As I said, there are a lot of new features in Swift 5.7

2022-06-06 23:25:12 Some of the interesting highlights from the new Xcode:

- Finally! Simplify an app icon with a single 1024x1024 image that is automatically resized for its target. Choose the Single Size option in the app icon’s Attributes inspector in the asset catalog. You can still override individual sizes with the All Sizes option.
- Starting with Xcode 14, bitcode is no longer required for watchOS and tvOS applications, and the App Store no longer accepts bitcode submissions from Xcode 14.
- Instruments now includes a new Swift Concurrency template for tracing the usage and behavior of Swift’s concurrency primitives.
- Instruments has a new Hang Tracing instrument that shows when an app’s main thread is unable to handle incoming events for an extended period of time, potentially causing the UI to hang.
- Hang reports in the Xcode Organizer provide diagnostic reports on application hangs to assist in improving responsiveness. Reports are generated for an individual app release and ordered by severity. They include sample logs for hangs occurring on the main thread that you can use for debugging as well as statistics on affected devices and iOS versions for the report.
- Xcode Previews can now run on physical devices without requiring a containing application, making it easy to preview on-device for frameworks and Swift packages.
- Added a refactor action to add an explicit Codable implementation.
- Simulator now supports remote notifications in iOS 16 when running in macOS 13 on Mac computers with Apple silicon or T2 processors. Simulator supports the Apple Push Notification Service Sandbox environment. Your server can send a remote notification to your app running in that simulator by connecting to the APNS Sandbox.
- Xcode now pins elements of your code structure to the top of the editor as you scroll through a document.
- Swift 5.7 with a lot of new features!

2022-05-28 15:33:00 Look at the image - familiar situation? Just a typo. The code compiles and then crashes at runtime. An author found a halfway solution for detecting these problems, but only for custom view modifiers - using a special Swift attribute. So at least we can make our code safer.

2022-05-26 16:00:32 I think a lot of developers are stressed when dealing with the iOS signing process, and that's fine. Therefore, Bruno has prepared a short article to refresh the knowledge for these people.

By the way, you can read more advanced articles written by Apple a few weeks ago:
Inside Code Signing: Requirements
Inside Code Signing: Hashes
Inside Code Signing: Provisioning Profiles
