Swift Insights: Articles on iOS Development

In SwiftUI, views are fundamentally designed as value types rather than traditional objects. This design approach is a key aspect of SwiftUI’s declarative programming model and aligns with the Swift language’s emphasis on value semantics.

By treating views as values, SwiftUI promotes predictable behavior and enables developers to manage state and data flow more effectively. This paradigm shift towards a more functional and declarative style of programming empowers developers to describe the desired state of the user interface, while SwiftUI handles the complexities of managing the view hierarchy. Understanding this distinction is crucial for developers to avoid common pitfalls that can lead to bugs in their applications and ensure a smooth and efficient user experience. 🧐

Almost anyone who uses Xcode can quickly notice that it lacks many essential Git features, which is acceptable in some way since it’s primarily a development environment rather than a dedicated source control application.

The features available in Xcode may suffice for personal or small projects, but when working within a larger team, relying solely on the IDE can lead to significant challenges in managing source control effectively.

This is not directly related to swift or iOS, but thought it’s worth sharing, since I couldn’t find any article that mention such way to backup files.

I’m one of those who experienced the evolution of data storage firsthand, starting with floppy disks to back up HTML pages—specifically 3DMax tutorials—during my visits to internet cafés back in 2003. As technology advanced, I transitioned to using CDs, followed by DVDs, which offered greater storage capacity.

One crisp Monday morning, a fresh-faced software engineer, affectionately nicknamed Penguin 🐧, embarked on their inaugural journey into the professional realm, commencing their very first job as a developer. As the young Penguin waddled into the office, eager to make their mark, a captivating conversation unfolded between the newcomer and their seasoned team leader, the wise and experienced Rex 🦖.

After reading the very popular book, Grokking Algorithms, I decided to blog about algorithms and data structures. I find the book is very informative and easy to digest.

Understanding data structures is essential before diving into problem-solving. While I won’t go into detailed explanations here, I recommend attempting to solve the problems on your own without immediately referring to the solutions.
