How to Create Good-Looking iOS Apps – Even if a Deadline is Looming

If you want to create an iOS app that stands out, the least you could do is to give it a custom look and feel. Let’s say that you want to start by changing the background color of your UIViews to dark gray. You may be tempted to switch to your storyboard, and change the background color of each UIView in the “Attributes Inspector.” Not so quick! There’s a better and easier way to provide a custom color scheme/branding for your app. UIAppearance lets you customize the views and controls consistently across the entire applications. It’s elegant and straightforward, [...]

Here’s How to Construct a Swift Type from a String

https://youtu.be/LdIib-SrOmk The transcript of the video If we need a URL, we initialize it using the following syntax: var url = URL(string: "http://www.leakka.com") That’s pretty straightforward, but wouldn’t it be cool to create a url just like this: var url = "http://www.leakka.com" ? If we tried that, we’d get a compiler error. Actually, we can make it work with just a little bit of coding. And here’s how! Swift has a protocol called ExpressibleByStringLiteral. If we make a type adapt it, we can create instances of that type from a string. Here’s the official documentation: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/swift/expressiblebystringliteral  ExpressibleByStringLiteral A type [...]

Easy “Trick” to Turbo-Charge Your Swift Projects

Sometimes, small code changes can bring considerable benefits.  By using specific keywords, we can improve the performance of our code.  Before I reveal that little optimization trick, you need to understand why it actually works. So, let’s talk first about method calls. Swift supports different techniques to invoke a method at runtime. Static dispatch is when the compiler can infer at build time which method to call. Static dispatch won’t work if subclasses can override the methods or the properties of the superclass. The compiler can’t figure out at compile time whether we’re referring to the superclass’s implementation or [...]
