A while ago I completed the 100 Days of Swift challenge by Paul Hudson. It was an amazing experience where I learned a lot about Swift and iOS development. In today’s post, I’ll share my thoughts about this journey and highlight some of the most interesting things I encountered. Let’s dive in!
A few days ago, I published a post about my journey as a mobile developer and why I am changing to native iOS development. Today, I will share my first impressions of using View Code in iOS development. To practice, I chose a design for a mobile app that I found at Dribbble and started to make an app clone. So, let’s jump in and see the results!
In mid-2014, when I began my journey into mobile development, there were few options for cross-platform approaches. My journey started with Xamarin, a powerful technology that allowed me to create native applications for multiple platforms using C#. Over the years, I focused on mobile development, leaving backend development behind to dedicate myself solely to Android and iOS development. In this post, I share some of my experiences and explain why I am increasingly drawn to iOS development with Swift.
In May 2020, I hosted a live session asking, “What would you like to see in video tutorials about developing interfaces with Xamarin.Forms?” So, what happened to that initiative? That’s what you’ll find out in this post.
Why did I start these live streams? Well, recently, I had the opportunity to participate in some live streams on the Maratona Xamarin do Monkey Nights (live developing screens with XAML) and on Canal dotNET (Yellow app clone Part I and Part II). I enjoyed this experience so much that I decided to do my own live streams.
