AppForce1 Podcast: news and information for iOS app developers

Send us a text

Swift and SwiftUI received big updates last week. Yes, only available on beta releases. But give it a few months and we are living and breathing these changes.

I also liked a CarPlay article I stumbled upon. It is a really nice change of pace integrating something on CarPlay. A bit like venturing into AppleWatch or macOS for the first time.

I tried to order them in a logical way. Obviously there is a ton more news from Apple. But this is what I could fit in an podcast episode within reason.

During my intro I also mentioned the Swift Package Index. Check it out, I really love their recently added support for DocC generation and hosting.
