Welcome to a

0:10

special edition of a podcast.

0:12

I'm interviewing Chad GPT. So I

0:12

was listening to another podcast

0:16

by the cyber wire network. And

0:16

they did a fun thing. They

0:20

basically had a conversation

0:20

with Chad Deepti and transcribe

0:24

that into audio. And it was

0:24

focused strictly on security

0:29

related professionals. So people

0:29

who do network security and

0:32

device security and all those

0:32

kinds of things. And it was such

0:35

a fun and inspiring conversation

0:35

that I thought I let's try this

0:38

myself as well. So what I did, I

0:38

just had a text console open

0:42

with chatty putty had like a

0:42

written conversation with Chad

0:46

GPT then took the entire body of

0:46

text that was typed by me and

0:52

generated by Chad GPT. And I

0:52

transcribed the written parts by

0:57

Chad tip T into a spoken format,

0:57

by using a machine model. I

1:03

think it's the Siri force that I

1:03

used. And next adapt, I made

1:06

sure that I would dub my spoken

1:06

content instead of the senses

1:13

that I actually typed into the

1:13

chat GPT interface. So I'm

1:18

asking a couple questions. It's,

1:18

it goes a bit all over the

1:21

place. It's actually quite a lot

1:21

of fun, I think. And at the end

1:25

of the conversation with chatty

1:25

putty, I'll do a short recap and

1:29

some commentary on the results

1:29

that Chetcuti actually provided

1:33

me with. So enjoy the

1:33

conversation. This is a bit of a

1:36

different one. Hi, and welcome

1:36

to my podcast. Are you okay with

1:40

being interviewed by me?

1:42

Yes, I am an AI

1:42

language model created by open

1:45

AI. So I am always ready to

1:45

assist and answer questions. Go

1:49

ahead and ask me anything you

1:49

would like to know.

1:51

Cool. So let's

1:51

begin with your origins. Where

1:54

are you from?

1:55

I was created by open

1:55

AI, a research organization

1:59

based in San Francisco,

1:59

California, open eyes dedicated

2:02

to developing and promoting

2:02

friendly air that benefits

2:05

humanity. I was trained on a

2:05

vast amount of text data from

2:09

the internet to generate human

2:09

like responses to text based

2:12

queries.

2:13

And how long

2:13

are you in existence? When were

2:15

you created?

2:16

Open AI was founded in

2:16

2015. And I was created as a

2:19

language model in the following

2:19

years. My training data consists

2:23

of text from the internet, which

2:23

was current up until 2021. As of

2:27

my creation date, I was one of

2:27

the largest language models, and

2:31

I continue to be updated and

2:31

improved upon by open AI,

2:34

since my podcast is about iOS development. I reckon you know

2:35

about that, too.

2:38

Yes, I have been

2:38

trained on a wide range of

2:41

topics, including iOS

2:41

development, I can provide

2:44

information and answer questions

2:44

about various aspects of iOS

2:47

development, such as Swift

2:47

programming, scurred, iOS app

2:51

design and development, and app

2:51

submission to the App Store,

2:54

among others. Please feel free

2:54

to ask me any questions you

2:57

have.

2:58

Oh, wow, that's

2:58

pretty amazing. Where should we

3:00

start?

3:02

Sure. Let's start with

3:02

a basic question. What would you

3:05

like to know about iOS

3:05

development? I am here to help

3:08

with any questions you have.

3:10

How long have people been doing iOS development? Let's start with

3:11

that.

3:14

iOS development started

3:14

in 2008, when Apple Inc, first

3:18

released the iPhone. With the

3:18

introduction of the iPhone,

3:21

Apple also released the iOS

3:21

operating system and the SDK

3:25

Software Development Kit for

3:25

developers to create native apps

3:28

for the platform. Since then,

3:28

iOS development has become a

3:32

popular and lucrative field with

3:32

millions of apps available on

3:35

the App Store. The popularity of

3:35

the iOS platform, and the

3:38

increasing demand for iOS apps

3:38

have created numerous job

3:41

opportunities and a thriving

3:41

ecosystem of third party tools

3:44

and services for developers. You

3:44

mentioned lucrative, yes, iOS

3:49

development can be a lucrative

3:49

career option for developers.

3:52

The popularity of the iOS

3:52

platform and the increasing

3:55

demand for iOS apps have created

3:55

a large market for app

3:58

development services. This has

3:58

resulted in high demand for

4:01

skilled iOS developers, which in

4:01

turn has driven up salaries and

4:04

freelance rates for iOS

4:04

development work. Additionally,

4:08

many IO OS developers have

4:08

created successful apps that

4:11

generate significant revenue

4:11

through the App Store further

4:14

highlighting the potential for

4:14

financial success in the field.

4:17

However, it's important to note

4:17

that success in iOS development,

4:21

like any field requires a

4:21

combination of skills, hard

4:24

work, and a bit of luck, and

4:24

what role could you play in

4:28

that? As an air language model?

4:28

I can play a role in supporting

4:31

and enabling IO s development in

4:31

several ways, one, providing

4:35

information and answering

4:35

questions, I can provide

4:38

information and answer questions

4:38

about various aspects of iOS

4:41

development, such as Swift

4:41

programming, scurred, iOS app

4:45

design and development and app

4:45

submission to the App Store to

4:49

supporting code development. I

4:49

can assist with writing code by

4:52

suggesting snippets providing

4:52

examples and answering syntax

4:56

related questions. Three,

4:56

improving efficiency, I can

4:59

automate tedious tasks such as

4:59

generating boilerplate code,

5:03

freeing up time for developers

5:03

to focus on more complex and

5:06

creative tasks for enhancing

5:06

learning and training, I can

5:10

help developers learn new

5:10

concepts and technologies by

5:13

answering questions and

5:13

providing explanations and

5:16

resources. Overall, I can be a

5:16

valuable resource for iOS

5:19

developers looking to improve

5:19

their skills, efficiency and

5:23

overall experience in the field.

5:25

It sounds like

5:25

you can do many things. What do

5:27

iOS developers ask you most often?

5:30

As an air language

5:30

model, I receive a wide range of

5:32

questions from iOS developers on

5:32

various topics, including one

5:37

Swift programming. Many

5:37

developers ask about Swift

5:40

syntax, language features, best

5:40

practices, and common design

5:44

patterns. to scold. Developers

5:44

often ask about scouts, user

5:48

interface, debugging tools, and

5:48

how to use scout for iOS

5:52

development, three, iOS app

5:52

design and development. This

5:56

includes questions about app

5:56

architecture, UI UX design, and

6:00

how to implement specific

6:00

features or functionality in an

6:02

app for app submission to the

6:02

App Store. This includes

6:06

questions about preparing up

6:06

submissions, navigating the

6:09

review process, and resolving

6:09

common issues that can arise

6:12

during app submission. Overall,

6:12

iOS developers asked me a wide

6:16

range of questions related to

6:16

different aspects of iOS

6:19

development, and I do my best to

6:19

provide accurate and helpful

6:22

answers to support their work and learning.

6:24

Okay, what is

6:24

the best iOS app architecture

6:27

them?

6:27

The best iOS app

6:27

architecture is subjective and

6:30

depends on the specific

6:30

requirements and goals of each

6:32

app. However, there are several

6:32

widely used and well established

6:36

architectural patterns that are

6:36

commonly used in iOS app

6:39

development. Some of the most

6:39

popular iOS app architectures

6:42

include one MVC model view

6:42

controller. MVC is a classic

6:48

design pattern that has been

6:48

widely used in iOS app

6:50

development for many years. It

6:50

provides a clear separation of

6:53

concerns between the data model,

6:53

the user interface, and the

6:57

control logic, to MVVM Model

6:57

View. ViewModel. MVVM, is a

7:02

variant of MVC that is designed

7:02

to support more modern, reactive

7:07

and testable app architectures.

7:07

It provides a clear separation

7:10

between the data model, the user

7:10

interface, and the view model,

7:13

which handles presentation

7:13

logic. Three Viper Viper is a

7:18

relatively new architecture that

7:18

is designed to provide a clean

7:21

and maintainable structure for

7:21

complex iOS apps. It stands for

7:25

view interactor, presenter,

7:25

entity and router and provides a

7:29

clear separation of

7:29

responsibilities for each

7:31

component. Each of these

7:31

architectures has its strengths

7:34

and weaknesses. And the best

7:34

architecture for a specific app

7:37

will depend on factors such as

7:37

the app size, complexity and

7:41

requirements, it's important to

7:41

choose an architecture that best

7:44

fits the needs of the app and

7:44

provides a solid foundation for

7:47

future development and maintenance.

7:49

How can you

7:49

assist a developer with choosing

7:51

the right architecture than

7:52

as an error language

7:52

model? I can assist the

7:54

developer with choosing the

7:54

right architecture by one

7:57

providing information, I can

7:57

provide detailed information on

8:00

different app architectures,

8:00

including their strengths and

8:03

weaknesses. And when they are

8:03

most appropriate to use to

8:07

answering questions, I can

8:07

answer specific questions that a

8:10

developer might have about

8:10

different architectures such as

8:12

how they are implemented and

8:12

what challenges they present

8:15

three. offering examples, I can

8:15

provide code examples that

8:19

demonstrate how different

8:19

architectures can be used in

8:22

practice, helping developers to

8:22

better understand the concepts

8:25

and how they can be applied to

8:25

their own apps. for providing

8:28

resources, I can provide

8:28

resources such as articles,

8:31

tutorials, and sample projects

8:31

that can help developers learn

8:35

more about different app

8:35

architectures and make informed

8:37

decisions about which

8:37

architecture is best for their

8:39

specific app. In summary, I can

8:39

assist a developer with choosing

8:43

the right architecture by

8:43

providing information, answering

8:45

questions, offering examples,

8:45

and providing resources, which

8:49

can help the developer make an

8:49

informed decision about which

8:52

architecture is best suited to

8:52

their needs.

8:54

What are some

8:54

resources available iOS app

8:56

architecture that you recommend?

8:58

There are many

8:58

resources available on iOS app

9:00

architecture that can be helpful

9:00

for developers looking to learn

9:03

more about this topic? Here are

9:03

a few resources I would

9:06

recommend one, Apple's iOS human

9:06

interface guidelines. This is a

9:11

comprehensive resource that

9:11

provides guidance on app design,

9:14

user experience, and

9:14

architecture. It includes

9:18

information on how to design

9:18

intuitive and well structured

9:20

apps, and is a must read for all

9:20

iOS developers to re render

9:25

Liches iOS architecture

9:25

patterns. This is a

9:27

comprehensive guide that covers

9:27

several popular IO, s AP

9:31

architectures, including MVC,

9:31

MVVM, and Viper. It provides

9:36

clear explanations, diagrams,

9:36

and code examples to help

9:39

developers understand how each

9:39

architecture works, and when it

9:42

is most appropriate to use three

9:42

of Chios app architecture. This

9:47

is a book that provides a deep

9:47

dive into different iOS app

9:49

architectures, and offers

9:49

practical advice on how to

9:52

design and implement well

9:52

structured and maintainable iOS

9:55

apps for iOS app architecture, a

9:55

series of blog posts by my cash

10:00

this is a series of blog posts

10:00

by my cash, a seasoned iOS

10:04

developer that provides in depth

10:04

coverage of different iOS app

10:08

architectures and offers

10:08

practical hints sights and best

10:10

practices for designing and

10:10

implementing iOS apps. Five,

10:14

Apple's WWDC videos Apple's

10:14

Worldwide Developers Conference.

10:18

WWDC is an annual event where

10:18

developers can learn about the

10:22

latest technologies, frameworks

10:22

and best practices for iOS app

10:26

development. Many of the

10:26

sessions are recorded and made

10:28

available online. And these

10:28

videos provide a wealth of

10:31

information on iOS app

10:31

architecture, and design. These

10:34

are just a few of the many

10:34

resources available on iOS app

10:37

architecture. And I would

10:37

recommend exploring these and

10:40

other resources to gain a deeper

10:40

understanding of this important

10:43

topic. Show me a fire per

10:43

example. Here is a simple

10:46

example of how the Viper

10:46

architecture could be used in an

10:49

iOS app. One view, the view is

10:49

responsible for displaying the

10:53

data and handling user

10:53

interactions. In iOS. This is

10:57

typically implemented as a UI

10:57

view controller to interact her.

11:01

The interrupter is responsible

11:01

for performing the business

11:04

logic of the app. In this

11:04

example, it might be responsible

11:07

for fetching data from a remote

11:07

API three presenter, the

11:11

presenter is responsible for

11:11

processing the data returned by

11:14

the interactor and preparing it

11:14

for display by the view for

11:18

entity, the entity is a data

11:18

model that represents the app's

11:21

data. In this example, it might

11:21

be a model that represents a

11:25

user or a list of users five

11:25

router, the router is

11:29

responsible for handling

11:29

navigation between different

11:31

parts of the app. In this

11:31

example, it might be responsible

11:35

for showing the view when the

11:35

user taps a button or for

11:37

navigating to another screen

11:37

when the user selects a user

11:40

from the list. Here's a simple

11:40

code example in Swift that

11:43

demonstrates how these

11:43

components could interact in a

11:45

viper based iOS app.

11:47

Chet TPT now

11:47

provides me with some Swift code

11:49

that I've put as an example in

11:49

my show notes, so you can find

11:53

it there.

11:54

In this example, the

11:54

view User List View Controller

11:58

communicates with the presenter

11:58

user list presenter, which in

12:01

turn communicates with the

12:01

interactor user list interactor.

12:05

To fetch data. The presenter

12:05

then communicates the results

12:08

back to the view and the router,

12:08

use a list router to handle

12:11

navigation. This is just a

12:11

simple example to give you an

12:14

idea of how the Viper

12:14

architecture could be used in an

12:16

iOS app. In a real world app,

12:16

the components would likely be

12:20

more complex and include

12:20

additional protocols and

12:22

delegates to handle more

12:22

advanced scenarios.

12:25

That's some pretty advanced stuff. You mentioned iOS development as

12:26

being a potentially lucrative

12:29

career. What are typical ways

12:29

for people to get into this

12:32

field.

12:33

There are several ways

12:33

for people to get into iOS

12:36

development, including one self

12:36

study. One of the most common

12:40

ways to get into iOS development

12:40

is by learning on your own.

12:44

There are many online resources,

12:44

including tutorials, video

12:47

courses, and books that can help

12:47

you get started to college or

12:52

university. Another way to get

12:52

into iOS development is to

12:55

attend a college or university

12:55

and earn a degree in computer

12:58

science or a related field. This

12:58

option can provide a more

13:01

structured and comprehensive

13:01

education, three boot camps.

13:05

Boot Camps are intensive, short

13:05

term programs that provide hands

13:09

on experience in iOS

13:09

development, they are a great

13:12

way to get started quickly and

13:12

can be a good option for those

13:15

who want to learn quickly and

13:15

get a job in a field as soon as

13:18

possible for on the job

13:18

training. Finally, you can also

13:22

get into iOS development by

13:22

working for a company that

13:24

develops iOS apps. This option

13:24

will provide hands on experience

13:28

and the opportunity to learn

13:28

from experienced developers.

13:31

Regardless of which path you

13:31

choose. It is important to have

13:34

a strong foundation in computer

13:34

science, programming concepts,

13:38

and swift, the programming

13:38

language used for iOS

13:41

development. You should also be

13:41

familiar with Apple's

13:43

development tools, such as

13:43

scolding the i OS SDK, and have

13:47

experienced building and testing

13:47

iOS apps. What if people want to

13:51

get started right now, if you

13:51

want to get started with iOS

13:54

development right now, here are

13:54

some steps you can follow. One,

13:58

get familiar with Swift. Swift

13:58

is the programming language used

14:02

for iOS development. So start by

14:02

learning the basics of the

14:05

language and getting comfortable

14:05

with its syntax to download

14:08

Xcode. Scope is the development

14:08

environment used to build iOS

14:12

apps, download and install Xcode

14:12

from the Mac App Store. Three,

14:16

practice, practice practice. The

14:16

best way to learn iOS

14:20

development is by building apps.

14:20

Start with simple apps such as a

14:24

calculator or weather app, and

14:24

work your way up to more complex

14:27

projects. For read and follow

14:27

tutorials. There are many great

14:31

tutorials and online resources

14:31

available for iOS development,

14:35

so make sure to read and follow

14:35

them to learn best practices and

14:38

pick up tips and tricks from

14:38

experienced developers. Five,

14:42

participate in online forums.

14:42

Join online forums, such as

14:45

Stack Overflow to ask questions,

14:45

share your knowledge, and

14:49

connect with other developers.

14:49

Six, join the IO s developer

14:53

community. Finally, make sure to

14:53

join the i OS developer

14:57

community by attending meetups

14:57

participating in hackathons and

15:00

following industry news and

15:00

events. Remember, the key to

15:04

success in iOS development is

15:04

consistent practice and a

15:07

willingness to learn. Don't be

15:07

afraid to experiment ask

15:10

questions and make mistakes as

15:10

they are all part of the

15:13

learning process.

15:14

do podcasts

15:14

overall on this? Yes,

15:17

Podcasts can play an

15:17

important role in learning iOS

15:20

development. Podcasts provide a

15:20

convenient and engaging way to

15:23

stay up to date with the latest

15:23

trends, technologies and best

15:26

practices in iOS development.

15:26

You can listen to experts in the

15:30

field discuss various topics and

15:30

offer insights and advice that

15:33

18:34

100% Agreed.

18:34

Let's go back to the topic of

18:36

learning iOS development.

18:36

Suppose someone is learning iOS

18:39

development, how long do they

18:39

need to become a hireable junior

18:42

developer,

18:44

the amount of time it

18:44

takes to become a hireable

18:46

Junior IO OS developer can vary

18:46

depending on several factors

18:50

such as prior experience with

18:50

programming, dedication to

18:53

learning and practicing and the

18:53

resources and tools used to

18:55

learn. On average, it can take

18:55

anywhere from several months to

18:59

a year or more to become

18:59

proficient enough in iOS

19:01

development to be hired for a

19:01

junior level position. However,

19:05

it's important to keep in mind

19:05

that learning to develop for iOS

19:08

is a continuous process. And

19:08

there is always more to learn

19:11

and explore. A junior developer

19:11

is expected to have a solid

19:14

foundation in the basics of iOS

19:14

s development and be able to

19:18

write clean, maintainable code.

19:18

They should also be familiar

19:21

with the iOS development

19:21

ecosystem and be able to work

19:24

with common tools and

19:24

technologies such as swift, C

19:27

code and the iOS SDK. The key to

19:27

becoming a hireable Junior I O S

19:32

developer is to consistently

19:32

learn and practice this can

19:35

involve taking online courses,

19:35

working through tutorials,

19:39

building personal projects, and

19:39

participating in the iOS

19:42

development community. by

19:42

dedicating time and effort to

19:45

learning and practicing iOS

19:45

development. Anyone can work

19:48

towards becoming a hireable

19:48

junior developer in this field.

19:51

Let's help people learning iOS development. So more can you provide us with

19:53

a project outline for a good

19:56

starter project people can sink

19:56

their teeth in? Sure.

19:59

Here's a project

19:59

outline for a good starter

20:01

project for those learning iOS

20:01

development, one to do list app.

20:06

This is a simple but useful app

20:06

that allows users to add and

20:08

manage a list of tasks To

20:08

project outline a user interface

20:13

create a simple user interface

20:13

with a table view that displays

20:17

a list of tasks along with an

20:17

Add button to add new tasks be

20:20

task model, create a task model

20:20

that includes properties such as

20:23

task title, task, description,

20:23

and task status completed or not

20:28

completed. See task management

20:28

implemented logic for adding,

20:31

editing and deleting tasks and

20:31

for marking tasks as completed

20:35

or not completed. Deep

20:35

assistants implement persistence

20:38

for the task later, either using

20:38

core data or a simpler solution

20:41

such as user defaults the bonus,

20:41

add additional features such as

20:44

due dates, priority levels, and

20:44

categorization to make the app

20:48

more useful and challenging.

20:48

This project is a good starter

20:51

project as it covers many

20:51

important concepts in iOS

20:54

development, such as user

20:54

interface design, data

20:57

management and persistence. By

20:57

working through this project.

21:00

Aspiring iOS developers can gain

21:00

practical experience and build a

21:04

solid foundation in iOS

21:04

development that they can build

21:07

upon as they continue to learn and grow.

21:09

Core Data is

21:09

considered a hard topic by many

21:11

iOS developers. What are some

21:11

good books on that topic?

21:15

community. These developers and

24:26

organizations are considered

24:29

leaders in the field and their

24:29

resources are widely respected

24:32

and recommended for anyone

24:32

interested in learning iOS

24:34

development.

24:35

Let's go back to that to do a project you suggest it's Can you provide a

24:37

more step by step approach for

24:40

people to follow along with?

24:42

Sure, here's a step by

24:42

step approach to building a

24:45

simple Tado app in iOS one.

24:45

Start by setting up a new

24:49

project in Xcode, choose the

24:49

Single View app template and

24:52

give your project a name to

24:52

create a model for your todo

24:56

items. This could be as simple

24:56

as a class with a title property

24:59

and a completed property. Three,

24:59

set up a table view in your main

25:03

view controller to display the

25:03

list of Tado items. You'll want

25:06

to use a TableView Cell

25:06

prototype to display each item

25:08

in the list for or create an add

25:08

button in your main view

25:12

controller. When this button is

25:12

tapped, you will want to show a

25:15

new view controller that allows

25:15

the user to add a new Tado item

25:19

five. In the new view

25:19

controller, add a text field for

25:22

the user to enter the title of

25:22

the todo item, and a button to

25:25

save the new item. When the save

25:25

button is tapped, you want to

25:29

add the new item to your model,

25:29

and then dismiss the view

25:32

controller to return to the main

25:32

view six, implement the

25:35

checkmark accessory for each

25:35

TableView cell to allow the user

25:38

to mark an item as completed.

25:38

When an item is marked as

25:41

completed, you'll want to update

25:41

its completed property in your

25:44

model seven, add the ability to

25:44

edit and delete items in the

25:48

table view. You can implement

25:48

this by adding an edit button to

25:51

your main view controller. And

25:51

then using Table View delegate

25:53

methods to respond to user

25:53

actions such as swipe to delete

25:56

or tap to edit. This is a basic

25:56

outline of how to build a simple

26:00

Tado app in iOS. By following

26:00

these steps, you will be able to

26:03

create a functional app that

26:03

covers many of the basics of iOS

26:06

development, including user

26:06

interfaces, data storage, and

26:10

basic interaction. Of course,

26:10

you can always build upon this

26:13

basic app to add more features

26:13

and functionality. But this

26:16

should give you a solid

26:16

foundation to work from.

26:19

And you can help out by providing a lot of the boilerplate code, right?

26:22

Yes, I can provide some

26:22

boilerplate code to help people

26:25

get started on their todo app

26:25

project. However, it's important

26:29

to note that writing code is

26:29

only one part of the learning

26:31

process. And it's just as

26:31

important for developers to

26:34

understand why certain decisions

26:34

are made, such as which design

26:37

patterns to use, how to handle

26:37

data, persistence, and more.

26:41

That's why it's recommended to

26:41

follow along with tutorials or

26:44

courses, read books or articles,

26:44

and engage in discussion with

26:47

other developers to truly grasp

26:47

the concepts.

26:50

Something I'm a

26:50

fan of is something called micro

26:52

frameworks. Have you heard of those?

26:55

Yes, I have heard of

26:55

micro frameworks. A micro

26:58

framework is a minimalistic

26:58

software framework that provides

27:01

only the bare essentials

27:01

required for specific tasks such

27:04

as routing or data persistence.

27:04

The idea behind micro frameworks

27:08

is to allow developers to

27:08

quickly and easily build small

27:11

targeted applications without

27:11

having to include a large number

27:14

of features and components that

27:14

they may not need. In iOS

27:17

development. Some popular micro

27:17

frameworks include flask,

27:20

Sinatra and express, they can be

27:20

a great way to quickly prototype

27:24

and test ideas, or to build

27:24

small specialized applications

27:28

that don't require the overhead

27:28

of a larger framework. And

27:31

tourist. Yes, I am familiar with

27:31

twist. Twist is an open source

27:36

tool that helps iOS developers

27:36

manage their scope projects and

27:39

generate code. It provides a

27:39

simple, easy to use interface

27:42

that allows developers to

27:42

specify the structure of their

27:45

projects and generate scope

27:45

projects, targets, and source

27:48

files based on that structure.

27:48

With twist, developers can

27:52

automate the creation of new

27:52

projects and targets as well as

27:55

keep those code projects

27:55

organized and maintainable.

27:57

Additionally, trust helps to

27:57

enforce best practices and

28:01

reduces the amount of

28:01

boilerplate code that developers

28:03

need to write. Overall, trust

28:03

can be a valuable tool for iOS

28:07

developers looking to streamline

28:07

their project management and

28:10

development process doesn't work

28:10

for micro frameworks to toast is

28:14

primarily designed to help

28:14

manage scope projects and

28:17

generate code, so it is well

28:17

suited for larger iOS projects

28:20

that require more extensive

28:20

management and organization,

28:23

however, to is can still be used

28:23

with micro frameworks as it can

28:27

automate the creation of Xcode

28:27

project targets and source

28:30

files. Whether it is the best

28:30

choice for a particular micro

28:34

framework project would depend

28:34

on the specifics of that project

28:37

and the preferences of the

28:37

developer. In general, twist can

28:40

be a useful tool for iOS

28:40

developers looking to streamline

28:43

the development process and

28:43

improve the organization of

28:45

their projects, regardless of

28:45

the size or type of the project.

28:49

What do I search for online to learn more about twist. To learn more

28:52

about twist, you can

28:52

search for twist, iOS, or twist

28:55

Scout online. This should bring

28:55

up a variety of resources,

28:59

including the tourist GitHub

28:59

repository, official tourist

29:02

documentation, blog posts and

29:02

tutorials from the tourist

29:05

community, and discussions on

29:05

forums and online communities

29:08

for iOS developers.

29:08

Additionally, you can follow

29:11

tourists on social media

29:11

platforms like Twitter and

29:14

LinkedIn to stay up to date on

29:14

the latest news and developments

29:17

related to the tool. Engaging

29:17

with a tourist community through

29:20

these channels can be a great

29:20

way to learn more about how to

29:23

adjust can help streamline your

29:23

IOA s development process and

29:26

get help with any questions you

29:26

may have any videos available.

29:30

Yes, there are several videos

29:30

available that demonstrate how

29:33

to use tourists for iOS

29:33

development. You can search for

29:36

tools, tutorial, or tourist

29:36

video on platforms like YouTube

29:40

or Vimeo to find a variety of

29:40

educational resources, including

29:43

introductions to the tool, step

29:43

by step tutorials and demos of

29:47

tourist in action. You can also

29:47

look for videos from tools

29:50

developers, or those in the iOS

29:50

development community who have

29:54

experience using the tool. These

29:54

resources can be a great way to

29:58

see toast in action and get a

29:58

better understanding of its

30:00

capabilities and how it can be

30:00

used to streamline your iOS

30:03

development process.

30:05

Can you give me some names of people creating this content?

30:08

I'm sorry, I don't have

30:08

the specific big names of people

30:10

channels that produce tourist

30:10

related videos at the moment.

30:14

However, you can try searching

30:14

for tourists tutorial or tourist

30:17

video on YouTube and you'll

30:17

likely find many educational

30:20

resources created by individuals

30:20

and organizations in the iOS

30:24

development community.

30:24

Additionally, the official

30:27

tourist website and its social

30:27

media accounts might also have

30:30

links to videos and tutorials

30:30

showcasing the tool.

30:33

I was hoping

30:33

you would mention coca hats now.

30:35

Yes, Coco heads and L

30:35

is a great resource for iOS

30:39

developers and those interested

30:39

in learning more about the

30:41

platform. Cocoa heads. An L is a

30:41

community of iOS developers in

30:46

the Netherlands who gather

30:46

regularly to share knowledge,

30:48

discuss the latest trends and

30:48

advancements in the field and

30:51

network with others in the

30:51

industry. They often host

30:54

meetups talks and other events.

30:54

And their website is a wealth of

30:58

information about iOS

30:58

development, including

31:01

tutorials, articles, and other

31:01

resources. If you're looking to

31:05

learn more about iOS development

31:05

and connect with others in the

31:07

field, joining a local cocoa

31:07

heads chapter such as cocoa

31:11

Hudson owl can be a great way to

31:11

do so who runs cocoa Hudsonville

31:15

cocoa heads and L is run by

31:15

volunteers within the iOS

31:19

development community in the

31:19

Netherlands. The organization is

31:22

typically led by a small team of

31:22

individuals who helped to plan

31:25

and organize events, manage the

31:25

website and social media

31:28

presence and keep the community

31:28

engaged and connected. The exact

31:32

structure and leadership of

31:32

cocoa heads and now may vary,

31:35

but the goal remains the same to

31:35

provide a supportive and

31:38

collaborative environment for

31:38

iOS developers in the

31:40

Netherlands to learn, grow and

31:40

connect with others in the

31:43

field. Do they organize any

31:43

conferences, CO CO heads and l

31:47

may organize or participate in

31:47

various events, including local

31:50

meetups, workshops, and possibly

31:50

conferences. The exact events

31:54

and activities that CO CO heads

31:54

are now hosts will depend on the

31:57

needs and interests of the local

31:57

iOS development community, as

32:01

well as the resources and time

32:01

available to the volunteer

32:04

organizers. However, the goal of

32:04

these events is generally to

32:07

bring developers together to

32:07

share knowledge network and

32:10

collaborate on new projects and

32:10

initiatives. By participating in

32:14

these events. iOS developers in

32:14

the Netherlands can stay up to

32:17

date on the latest technologies

32:17

and trends, as well as build

32:20

valuable relationships with

32:20

others in the field.

32:22

That was a nice

32:22

sidestep. We talked about some

32:24

online resources, how to get

32:24

into iOS development and some

32:27

meetup organization. What else

32:27

should we talk about to help my

32:30

listeners understand better what

32:30

you are capable of.

32:34

There are many other

32:34

aspects of iOS development, and

32:37

I can help with all of them. For

32:37

example, I can assist with

32:40

understanding the user interface

32:40

design patterns, programming

32:43

paradigms and best practices,

32:43

the different aspects of mobile

32:47

app testing, app deployment and

32:47

distribution, and many other

32:51

topics. Additionally, I can also

32:51

help with general coding

32:54

questions and development

32:54

workflows, as well as with

32:57

keeping up to date with the

32:57

latest advancements and trends

32:59

in the iOS development world.

32:59

The key is to understand what

33:03

the listeners needs and goals

33:03

are, so I can better tailor my

33:06

response to meet those needs.

33:08

I like design patterns, what are some important ones for iOS

33:09

developers.

33:11

As an iOS developer,

33:11

it's important to be familiar

33:14

with various design patterns

33:14

that help you write better

33:17

maintainable, and scalable code.

33:17

Here are some common design

33:20

patterns in iOS development, one

33:20

model view controller, MVC, two,

33:26

Model View ViewModel, MVVM,

33:26

three, delegation for singleton

33:31

five, observer six, factory

33:31

seven command, it's important to

33:37

note that the use of these

33:37

patterns can vary greatly

33:39

depending on the specific

33:39

requirements of a project, so

33:42

it's important to choose the

33:42

right pattern for the job.

33:44

However, having a solid

33:44

understanding of these patterns

33:48

can help you make informed

33:48

decisions and write better code.

33:51

And the other basics I need to know to be a successful iOS developer. There

33:53

are

33:55

several other basics

33:55

that are important for a

33:57

successful iOS developer to know

33:57

one familiarity with Swift and

34:02

its features such as optionals,

34:02

protocol oriented programming,

34:05

and functional programming, to

34:05

understanding of the iOS

34:09

operating system and the various

34:09

tools, libraries, and frameworks

34:13

that are part of the iOS

34:13

ecosystem. Three, knowledge of

34:16

the iOS human interface

34:16

guidelines and the principles of

34:19

good user interface design for

34:19

familiarity with core location

34:23

and core animation, which are

34:23

key technologies for building

34:26

location based and animated

34:26

applications. Five knowledge of

34:30

how to use code, the Integrated

34:30

Development Environment IDE for

34:34

iOS development, and how to use

34:34

the various debugging and

34:37

testing tools within scope, six

34:37

familiarity with third party

34:41

libraries such as CocoaPods and

34:41

Carthage, and how to use them to

34:44

build and distribute your own

34:44

iOS applications. Seven

34:48

understanding of how to use get

34:48

the version control system to

34:51

manage source code and

34:51

collaborate with other

34:53

developers. Eight knowledge of

34:53

App Store submission process,

34:57

App Store connect and app

34:57

analytics. You have not

35:00

mentioned swift UI swift UI as a

35:00

user interface framework

35:04

introduced by Apple in 2019. It

35:04

provides a new way to build and

35:08

design user interfaces for iOS

35:08

iOS, iPad OS, Mac OS and watch

35:13

OS using a declarative syntax

35:13

that's easy to read and write.

35:17

Swift UI allows developers to

35:17

create user interfaces faster

35:20

and with less code, and it

35:20

integrates well with existing

35:23

frameworks like combine and core

35:23

data. It is considered as an

35:26

important tool for iOS

35:26

development, and many developers

35:29

are exploring its features and

35:29

benefits to improve the

35:31

development process.

35:33

So Should

35:33

people learn about Swift UI or

35:35

UI Kit first, the decision

35:37

of whether to learn

35:37

Swift UI or UI Kit first depends

35:40

on personal preference and

35:40

current job requirements. If you

35:43

are starting fresh with iOS

35:43

development, it might be a good

35:46

idea to start with UI kit as it

35:46

has a longer history and is more

35:49

widely used. However, if you are

35:49

already familiar with UI kit and

35:53

want to take advantage of the

35:53

latest advancements in Apple's

35:56

platform, learning swift UI

35:56

might be a better choice.

35:59

Ultimately, both technologies

35:59

have their own strengths and

36:02

weaknesses. And it's important

36:02

to have a solid understanding of

36:05

both

36:06

what programming paradigms are used in iOS development since you

36:07

mentioned that earlier.

36:11

In iOS development, the

36:11

main programming paradigms used

36:14

the object oriented programming,

36:14

oop Model View Controller, MVC,

36:19

architecture, and protocol

36:19

oriented programming hop. These

36:23

paradigms help to structure the

36:23

code and ensure that it is

36:26

maintainable, scalable and

36:26

efficient. Understanding the

36:29

basics of these paradigms is

36:29

essential for iOS developers.

36:32

Alright, thank you for asking

36:32

these questions. If your

36:36

listeners have any further

36:36

questions, feel free to ask. I'm

36:39

here to help.

36:40

Let's close off

36:40

with a nice poem on everything

36:43

we discussed. We've talked

36:44

about the world of iOS

36:44

development, from the history of

36:47

its creation, to the ways one

36:47

can break into this profession.

36:50

We discussed the various

36:50

architectures Viper being one of

36:53

the most popular and resources

36:53

to aid in learning books and

36:56

podcasts to always be exploring

36:56

micro frameworks and twist helps

37:01

streamline the development

37:01

process. And organizations like

37:04

cocoa heads and l bringing

37:04

developers together in Congress,

37:07

design patterns, Swift UI UI

37:07

kit, two programming paradigms

37:12

are what to do, each with its

37:12

own strengths and benefits.

37:15

Choosing one depends on your own

37:15

preferences. So to all aspiring

37:19

iOS developers with dedication

37:19

and hard work, you will succeed

37:23

and with chat GPT as your guide,

37:23

you will be well on your way to

37:26

meet your needs. Now do it

37:26

Arnold Schwarzenegger style, I

37:30

am not capable of imitating the

37:30

speaking style of Arnold

37:32

Schwarzenegger. However, here is

37:32

a poem summarizing everything we

37:36

discussed in the previous

37:36

conversation. The journey to iOS

37:39

development begins with an eager

37:39

mind and a thirst to win. You

37:43

start with Swift, its syntax so

37:43

neat, the foundation of building

37:47

an app you will beat, the

37:47

choices are many, the path is

37:50

clear UI kit or Swift UI, the

37:50

choice is near, the best way to

37:54

start is by coding a Tado. A

37:54

simple app, but with depth

37:57

that'll grow. Design Patterns

37:57

play a crucial role, MVC, MVVM

38:02

Viper, you'll learn to unfold

38:02

core data and twist tools you

38:06

must know to build apps that

38:06

perform and grow the community

38:10

is key. And the support is grand

38:10

meetups, podcasts, and online at

38:14

hand. Cocoa heads are now a name

38:14

you should know for they

38:18

organize events and help you

38:18

grow. So take this advice and

38:22

embark on this quest to build

38:22

apps that shine and always do

38:25

your best you will face

38:25

challenges, but with grit and

38:28

might, you will emerge as a

38:28

successful iOS developer will

38:31

write

38:32

to bet you

38:32

cannot imitate him. But it was a

38:34

lot of fun talking to you.

38:36

It was a pleasure

38:36

talking with you as well. If you

38:39

have any more questions in the

38:39

future, feel free to ask, Have a

38:42

great day.

38:45

All right, that

38:45

was a lot of fun. I basically

38:48

review the entire response body

38:48

of the chatty party. And it was

38:52

basically one area that I had

38:52

some concerns there. And that's

38:56

when I asked him about the books

38:56

written by Donnie was I didn't

38:59

check it outright. So I'm not

38:59

100% Sure, but I think actually

39:03

some books were mentioned that

39:03

were not a part of the body of

39:09

work that Dani Walz has created.

39:09

So it just goes to show that you

39:13

have to be careful with what

39:13

Chad cheap GPT provides you

39:16

with. And that you always have

39:16

to use your common sense. But I

39:20

was actually surprised by the

39:20

amount of insight that a AI

39:25

could actually generate, based

39:25

on such a large input of text.

39:29

One thing to keep in mind,

39:29

though, is that chat GPT goes up

39:33

to about 2021, maybe two, maybe

39:33

a little bit earlier even. So

39:38

even the code that it generates,

39:38

it will always be like the way

39:44

you would be doing things like

39:44

back in the day back then. So

39:47

it's not modern, swift and swift

39:47

UI code to the latest level that

39:52

we are used to when working in

39:52

Xcode. So be aware of that. And

39:55

it goes to show with any other

39:55

bits of code that you let cheap

40:00

to generate as well. So the

40:00

other day, I had to chat GPT

40:05

generate some, some source code

40:05

that was like no GS based. It

40:09

went very well. Copy Pasted, had

40:09

to fake like three errors in the

40:12

code and it was actually

40:12

running. And then I could finish

40:15

off that bit of code that I

40:15

needed to do using GitHub co

40:20

pilot, which was kind of fun,

40:20

because I mostly did like

40:24

completions and completions, and

40:24

a bit of generating. And I ended

40:27

up with a very basic standard

40:27

login and registration flow

40:32

within an OGS. So that was kind

40:32

of surprising, and also sort of

40:39

impressing that, for simple use

40:39

cases, degeneration of source

40:43

code actually can get you this

40:43

far. On the other thing, what I

40:49

noticed with Chet GPT, is that

40:49

if you're looking for some sort

40:52

of challenge, you can just let

40:52

it generate some challenge for

40:55

you. And also, if you want to

40:55

recap, older, written

41:00

documentation, so that's like

41:00

2021 or earlier, I must say that

41:05

Chad GPT does a pretty

41:05

reasonable job. But the

41:09

disadvantages is that you have a

41:09

hard time getting to the actual

41:13

source material that Chad GPT

41:13

has used to come to the AI

41:19

conclusions that it has made. So

41:19

it's, it's interesting. It's a

41:24

bit of fun, but I would always

41:24

check the references before I

41:28

actually use or rely on

41:28

something generated by an

41:31

artificial intelligence like

41:31

GPT. Anyways, I hope you enjoyed

41:35

this. And I hope you had some

41:35

insights, what cheap tea can do

41:39

for you, if you haven't used

41:39

yet? GPT? Before, one thing I

41:43

would normally not do is let GPT

41:43

write content for me. Except for

41:49

one case that is on my blog.

41:49

It's my article about obsidian

41:53

the knowledge, no take thing. I

41:53

actually had that generated by

41:58

Chet GPT. From start to finish,

41:58

they did some minor editing on

42:02

it. But it also clearly marked

42:02

the contents as being generated.

42:04

It was just an experiment to see

42:04

how it would do what it would

42:08

actually generate. And yeah,

42:08

just I think it's important that

42:12

if you use Chetcuti in any

42:12

shape, way, or form instead to

42:15

be clear about that you actually

42:15

rely on such a tool. And also on

42:19

top of that. The copyright of

42:19

anything generated by

42:23

churchianity is a bit vague at

42:23

the moment. So there are some

42:27

lawsuits going on, I think even

42:27

so be careful with what you take

42:31

out of a tool like this. So,

42:31

again, thanks for your time, and

42:35

thanks for listening and I hope

42:35

you enjoyed it very weird,

42:38

special edition of my podcast.
