Is Learning UML a Waste of Time?

By |2019-03-07T09:24:37+00:00March 7th, 2019|Uncategorized|0 Comments

So, let me share the answer with you. The meaning of life is to BECOME A BETTER VERSION OF YOURSELF! We have to evolve; we need to upgrade ourselves to v2.0 (3.0, 4.0 you name it). What I try to avoid is getting stuck: stuck in an unfulfilling [...]

So, are you tired of the rat race? You feel that it's time for a change, and you want to work on your own ideas - instead of making others rich? I know, leaving your comfort zone is hard. But trust me: your real life begins after leaving the cubicle. Every one of us deserves to live a fulfilling life.

Finally, I could spend [...]

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, [...]
